Siblings, age 19 and 14, die on icy road in Carlton County

November 28, 2022 at 3:17AM

Two teenage siblings died early Saturday when the Volvo station wagon they were in hit ice on a curve, went out of control and landed in a ditch.

Driver Kaden James Tuura, 19, of Duluth and Aubrey Suzzanne Tuura, 14, of Barnum, Minn., died in the crash at about 1:15 a.m. on Hwy. 23 in Carlton County, the Minnesota Patrol said.

Neither was wearing a seat belt, the patrol said.

A GoFundMe account seeking cash support for the family confirmed the two were siblings.

No other cars were involved in the crash, which occurred near Holyoke.

Alcohol was not a factor in the crash, the patrol said.
