"Bismarck, ND -
Three people are dead and three injured in a morning crash north of Bismarck.
It happened around seven at the intersection of Washington and 1804.
The North Dakota Highway Patrol says the driver and two passengers in a van were killed and two other passengers injured.
The driver has been identified as 31-year-old Jose Manual Villareal-Ramirez of Mandan.  He was not wearing a seatbelt.  45-year-old Jose Pina-Moreno and 48-year-old Martin Meza-Bravo were also killed.  Two other passengers, 45-year-old Barry Zacher and 41-year-old Fabian Salgado-Monarrez were injured in the accident.  Monarrez was the only person wearing a seatbelt.
Authorities say the van ran the stop sign at Washington and was hit by a truck going east on 1804.
The driver of the truck, 54-year-old Bue William Thompson of Bismarck,  was the only person in the vehicle.
He was also injured.
All of the injured were transported to a local hospital.
North Dakota Highway Patrol Sgt.Dan Krueger says,"I don't believe that the weather was a factor, there was fog this morning and with visibility about half mile quarter mile visibility the vehicle was traveling north bound and disregarded the stop sign, vehicle 2 T-boned them sending them in to the ditch."

None of the five people in the van were wearing seat belts."
