Among the dead are the bus driver, Shuang Qing Feng, 58, of Flushing, New York and two bus passengers, Eileen Zelis Aria, 35, of Bronx, New York and Jaremy Vazquez, a 9-year-old girl from Brooklyn, New York.

Two UPS drivers -- Daniel Kepner, 53, and Dennis Kehler, 48 -- were among the people who died in the crash. Both were driving together in a tractor-trailer out of Harrisburg.

The bus, the tractor-trailers and a car were all involved in the chain-reaction incident at milepost 86 on the westbound turnpike in Mount Pleasant, about 40 miles from Pittsburgh.

The tour bus "was headed on a downhill grade, and the bus was unable to negotiate a corner. That bus went up an embankment, rolled over and then subsequently was hit by two tractor-trailers."

A third tractor-trailer then hit the first two, with a car also becoming involved in the pileup, police said.
