DALLAS, Ore. - Oregon State Police and local emergency responders remain on scene as the investigation continues into an early Sunday morning single-vehicle traffic crash on Highway 22. This highway is near Dallas, a town 15 miles west of Salem.

Police said wet streets and alcohol could be a factor.

The driver and a passenger were pronounced deceased at the scene. An infant and child are reported as critically injured.

Just before 5 a.m. Sunday morning, a 2003 Dodge Neon with six occupants was eastbound on a straight two lane stretch of Highway 22 near milepost 14, reports investigating officer Oregon State Police Senior Trooper Roger Reid.

Reid reports that the Dodge Neon traveled onto the shoulder for about 200 yards before its male driver attempted to steer back onto the roadway and lost control. Police have determined that the car rolled about five times before coming to a rest on its wheels on the highway shoulder. 

• The driver was 19-year-old Jose Ruben Pacheco Medina. His last-known address is in McMinnville. Police report that Medina did not have a valid operator's license, and he was not using safety restraints. He was ejected and pronounced dead at the scene.
