ANCHORAGE, AK. (THECOUNT) — Arleigh Bacarella of Nikiski, Alaska, has been identified as the victim in a fatal Sunday BMW crash on Highway 1 near Anchorage.
Bacarella, 34, was killed in a multi-vehicle crash on the Seward Highway Sunday night.
According to Alaska State Troopers, Bacarella was operating a BMW sedan on Seward Highway, when for unknown reasons, the vehicle crossed centerlines and into opposing lanes around 7 p.m. Sunday.
The BMW then made contact with a tandem axle trailer carrying a six-wheeler being towed by a Suburban on Highway 1. That collision caused the BMW to skid into the path of a Ford Class C Motorhome towing a 21-foot Alumaweld boat.
The BMW and Ford motorhome collided, dislodging boat from the trailer. The boat then became lodged inside the back of the motorhome.
