3/29 CORRECTION:

A Wyoming Highway Patrol crash summary, that has since been pulled from the agency's website, incorrectly identified one of the fatalities as Shayni Brown.

According to an obituary, Shayni's twin sister, Brianna June Brown, was killed in the crash, not Shayni.

None of the three people in the car were buckled up and two, Shayni Brown and Kianna Mannie, both of Wyoming, were completely ejected and died at the scene.

The patrol says speed and driver inattention are being investigated as possible contributing factors.

Brown and Mannie are the third and fourth teens to die on Wyoming's highways this month.
