The driver of the van, 39 year old Francisco Pedraza Velasquez of Mount Angel, was injured but is expected to survive. The Honda's driver, 20 year old Simon Alagoz of Hubard, suffered non-life-threatening injuries but two passengers, Alexei Alagoz, 19 , and Anya Cherinisoff, 15, both from Hubbard, were killed.

Two other passengers, 15 year old Michael Avgi of Woodburn and 16 year old Zinavi Ivanoff of Canby, are in critical condition. Police say at least four of the passengers in the Accord were not wearing seat belts.

The crash remains under investigation.
