‘There was nothing we could do’: Witness of deadly fiery crash says after trying to help

Two people were killed in a fiery wrong-way crash on Interstate 10 in Phoenix early Sunday morning, according to the Arizona Dept. of Public Safety. Witnesses described a chaotic and horrifying scene. One of those witnesses is Derek O'Neil.

The collision happened just before 3:30 a.m. on the eastbound lanes of the freeway near 7th Avenue. The roadway was shut down throughout the morning for the investigation.

Initial reports suggest that a wrong-way car was speeding through the I-10 tunnel when it collided with an SUV going the opposite direction between the 7th and 19th Avenue exits.

The drivers of both cars died from their injuries, DPS officials said.
