Posted: 9:36 am MT November 28, 2007

Tremonton, UT- Ten Utah State University students and their instructor were involved in a tragic car accident this afternoon. Seven were declared dead at the scene, and four were flown to neighboring hospitals, there condition is unknown.

Although the cause of the accident is not known yet a Utah Highway Patrol Lieutenant Jason Jensen was at the scene minutes after that accident occurred and told us, "if I were to guess the cause of the accident, based on my 11 years of experience on the force, I would say that the speed the car was traveling played a major role."

Noel Cockett, Dean of Agriculture said, "These were a great group of students, one of the best groups we've ever had. This is a huge loss."
