A man killed when six vehicles collided at an Interstate construction site near La Crosse was identified today as 29-year-old Jason Songer of La Crescent, Minnesota.

The Wisconsin State Patrol said four other people were injured in the chain reaction mishap Thursday morning on eastbound Interstate-90, two miles into Wisconsin from Minnesota. According to the state D-O-T, a dump truck rear-ended a car that was stopped in traffic. Both vehicles then drove into a grassy median where they caught fire. Two other cars, a van, and a semi-truck then got involved in the crash.

The driver of the third vehicle involved, a 20-year-old woman from Dakota Minnesota, was in critical condition at last word at a La Crosse hospital. All of the other drivers had non-life-threatening injuries, including the 35-year-old dump truck driver from Arpin, northwest of Wisconsin Rapids in central Wisconsin.
