Rock Springs Man Dies in Wreck on Snowy Road

A Rock Springs man is dead following a crash Wednesday in Fremont County. Wyoming Highway Patrol crash reports show 60-year old Roberto Santos died in a crash caused when he tried to pass a slower-moving vehicle on Highway 28 south of Lander. He lost control on the snow-packed road and clipped the other vehicle, spinning to the left and into the oncoming lane. There, his car hit a westbound vehicle head-on. He was thrown from his car, a 1997 Dodge Neon and died at the scene. His passenger, 23-year old Kevin Johnson of Columbia Falls, Montana, was also ejected. He was airlifted to Salt Lake City. The other drivers were alone in their vehicles and were uninjured.
