I'm a concerned citizen

I'm a concerned citizen interested in the identity of both the victim and survivor of the November 25, 2015 Glenn Highway rollover accident in the immediate vicinity of the Mirror Lake/North Birchwood exit. My wife and I live in the Mat-Su Valley and we are dog mushers. I have not been able to find any other information about the accident except that it happened. No follow up since the almost two weeks since it's occurrance. I would think that "next of kin" have been notified by now? Are you able to provide the answer to my above inquiry? If so, please email me at: dgb@mtaonline.net Thank you in advance, David Bogart, Wasilla, AK

Hi David, I too have been following this accident, and have been unable to get more information, including the names of the people involved. It actually is not uncommon for the local media to not follow up on stories like this. I will keep searching, and will post here when I find out more. Ingrid, Accident Data Center
