Oregon State Police said four people died in a high-speed collision in Linn County Monday night. The crash happened on Highway 226 about five miles south of Scio.

Police said a 20-year-old driver, Travis Longo of Albany, crossed into oncoming traffic on a curve. They said witnesses reported Longo was driving more than 100 miles per hour prior to the crash.

Police said Longo was killed along with his two passengers, Chloe Richmond, 18, and Skye Huskey, 18. Both teens were from Lebanon.

The driver of the other vehicle, 29-year-old Jessica Petrime of Scio, was also killed.

An eight-month old female passenger in Petrime's vehicle was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Note: Due to incorrect information included in a press release, a previous version of this story had the wrong spelling of Jessica Petrime's name.
