A man and woman from Red Wing were killed in a single-vehicle crash Friday afternoon in Pine Island, Minn., northwest of Rochester, the State Patrol said.
Authorities said the 2018 Honda CR-V was northbound on Hwy. 52 at about 4:30 p.m. when it left the highway and rolled over near Goodhue County Rd. 11. The roadway was dry at the time, they said.
The driver, an 85-year-old man, and his passenger, a 78-year-old woman, were killed. Their identities were not immediately released.
The Goodhue County Sheriff's Office, Zumbrota police and ambulance, and the Pine Island Fire Department assisted at the scene of the accident.
