Two people were killed in a tragic chain reaction pileup involving four tractor trailers and a pickup truck.

The incident occurred around 6 p.m. on the eastbound lanes of I-20 in Carroll County, Georgia.

WSB-TV reported that a semi truck was driving near Georgia 113 when it rear-ended a second semi truck.
The force of the collision launched the second truck into a pickup, completely crushing it.

The second truck continued into a third tractor trailer, which then hit a fourth.

The driver and passenger of the pickup truck were killed instantly. According to police, the deceased victims were identified at 53-year-old Larry Donnell Adams of Brenton, Louisiana; and 51-year-old Peggy O’ Neal of Bossier City, Louisiana.

The first semi truck driver was airlifted to a hospital with unknown injuries. No other injuries were reported.

Traffic delays were extensive as all eastbound lanes of Interstate 20 were shut down for over 5 hours. Motorists traveling eastbound on the highway were either diverted at Highway 27 or advised to seek alternate routes.

Charges are pending while the incident remains under investigation.
From here. Be warned there's something wonky there. Maybe to do with Flash. I turned off Flash in Firefox and the site was ok.
