Three members of a South Korean family visiting the United States have been missing for more than a week after driving through a winter storm while on a road trip between the Grand Canyon and Las Vegas, according to Arizona officials. Jiyeon Lee, 33, Taehee Kim, 59, and Junghee Kim, 54, were last known to be traveling in a rental car on Interstate 40 on March 13, according to the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office. The vehicle’s GPS data indicated the rental car was last on the interstate westbound around 3:27 p.m. that day, coinciding with a fatal pileup accident on the same interstate during a winter storm, according to a release from the Arizona Department of Public Safety. The crash occurred around 3:27 p.m. on westbound Interstate 40 near milepost 159.5 in Williams, Arizona. It involved multiple vehicles on a road covered in snow and ice, according to the release. “Multiple passenger vehicles were rear-ended, pushing them into, and in some cases, underneath crashed tractor-trailers,” the release said. The fatal accident involved 22 vehicles and 36 drivers and occupants, resulting in two fatalities and 16 injured individuals who were transported for medical care, DPS said.
