A man was killed and two others sustained serious injuries in a crash Friday on Interstate 35 just south of Hinckley.

David T. Greiner, 45, of Garfield, Minn., died at the scene, according to the State Patrol. His name was released Saturday.

Tabitha S. Sigler, 21, of Cambridge, Minn., and Santino Hilario Chavez, 36, of St. Paul, were taken to hospitals in the Twin Cities with life-threatening injuries.

The crash backed up freeway traffic until 7:30 p.m., when the northbound lanes of I-35 were reopened.

According to the State Patrol, Sigler and Chavez were in a Mitsubishi Endeavor heading south on Interstate 35 at 4 p.m. when their vehicle crossed the median into the northbound lanes, striking a Kia Sportage driven by Greiner.

Sigler was not wearing a seat belt, the patrol said.
