KALISPELL - Investigators say a third vehicle caused a crash that killed a state trooper and a couple from Hungry Horse.

Roy Moore and Ginger Wilborn died in the August 26th head-on collision that also killed Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Evan Schneider.

Investigators say video from the trooper's on-board camera shows a mid-sized, white car drifting into oncoming traffic. The car causes Moore to lose control of his pickup truck and veer back onto the highway, striking Schneider's patrol car head-on.

Authorities are still searching for the white car's driver, who didn't stop at the accident scene.
