TOWN OF MILTON, Wis. (AP) — Sheriff’s officials say a driver is expected to face homicide charges in a Rock County crash that killed two people.

A 68-year-old man and a 90-year-old woman, both from Black River Falls, died at the scene of the crash.

The driver of the SUV suffered life-threatening injuries. A female passenger in the SUV was also injured.
