A report on the crash says Frances Lee of Siloam Springs and Brandi Brumley and Brayon Atkinson of Bentonville died in the crash just after 1:15 p.m. Friday.

Troopers say sport utility vehicles driven by Lee and Brumley were in a curve on Arkansas Highway 102 when the SUV driven by Brumley crossed the centerline and collided head-on with the SUV driven by Lee. Atkinson was a passenger in Brumley’s vehicle.

A 3-year-old boy in Brumley’s SUV was injured and taken to a Little Rock hospital. His condition was not released.

Officials closed the highway and redirected traffic for more than two hours following the accident.
