Two Zionville people were killed and three other persons injured last night about 7:30 p.m. when two cars collided on U. S. Highway 421 about three miles east of Trade.
Mrs. Mary Sue Trivette, 36, of Zionville, and her father-in-law, Dewey C. Trivette, 69, also of Zionville, were the fatalities. North Carolina Highway Patrolman R. D. Bowlin said they were passengers in a car driven by Mrs. Trivette's husband, George C. Trivette, 38. Bowlin said the Trivette car drove onto the highway into the path of a car traveling toward Boone, N. C., driven by William Harold Walker, 17, son of Mr. and Mrs. V. L. Waker, Mountain City.
Mr. Trivette, Walker, and David G. Fenner, Shouns, a passenger in the Walker car, were taken to Watauga Hospital, Boone, N. C. for treatment. Walker and Fenner were released.
Bowlin said no charges had been filed although an investigation is continuing.
