Arizona Daily Star, "Tire Treads Separate, Three die in SUV rollover crash"

Three people were killed and three others were injured in a rollover crash on Interstate 10 near the Cochise-Pima county line Monday. All of the deceased and injured are from Tucson, said Officer Jim Oien, a Department of Public Safety spokesman. They are all brothers and cousins who work together.

The accident happened at 3:53 p.m. when tire treads separated on a westbound silver 2001 Chevrolet Suburban, he said. As the SUV was passing a tractor-trailer, the driver lost control and rolled the vehicle several times before it came to a rest on the right shoulder of the road, upside down, Oien said. During the rollover, one of the wheels broke off and struck another vehicle. The people inside -- a married couple from St. David -- were not injured.
