UPDATE: All three people killed in a wrong-way crash while fleeing from Whitfield County deputies have yet to be identified, according to the Georgia State Patrol.

The driver, who deputies said seemed "impaired," had gotten onto I-75 southbound going the opposite direction while being pursued by law enforcement.

Their car first crashed into a pickup truck, and then a tractor-trailer.

After the latter impact, the car struck a concrete divider and quickly became engulfed in flames. Troopers say all three occupants succumbed to their injuries on scene.
