Carnival Workers Die in Fiery Crash

[Snip... Four carnival workers — one a Middletown, N.Y., man — were killed yesterday when a van they were riding in was rear-ended by a tractor-trailer shortly before 4:30 a.m., Pennsylvania State Police reported. The crash occurred in Rush Township, Centre County, about 20 miles from Pennsylvania State University.]

Friends, family recall two carnival workers

[Snip.... It was a fiery crash. Police had to resort to dental records to identify the dead, whom they described as "transient people." Among the dead were Lenny Parken, 18, of Otisville, and Jaqueline Sanz, 51, of Philadelphia. A fourth man who was killed has not been identified.]

I’m guessing that “Ronald Thomas” Doe was working under the table since his employer didn’t have his proper ID/SSN. Or perhaps it was a stolen identity.
