PHOENIX, AZ. (THECOUNT) — Jennifer Vegtel and her son, Logan, have been identified as the victims killed in a State Route 51 crash Monday evening.
Vegtel, 31, and her 5-year-old son, were traveling in a Kia on Route 51 Monday around 6 p.m. when they were killed in a four-vehicle crash, the Arizona Department of Public Safety said.
A Chevrolet pickup, driven by 34-year-old Edgar Ramos-Esteban, was traveling on Route 51 when it came into contact with the rear of Vegtel’s Kia. The impact caused the Kia to strike the rear of a Volkswagen sedan which then crashed into an Isuzu truck.
Vegtel and her son were pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver of the Volkswagen was a 48-year-old man and the driver of the truck was a 49-year-old man, DPS said. Their name and current condition have not been provided.
DPS said Edgar Ramos-Esteban was “cited on-scene” while the driver of the Volkswagen was taken to a local hospital. source
Vegtel is survived by her husband, Logan’s father. Her family said her son was her life.
