U.S. Highway 10 back open tonight after being closed for more than six hours today as investigators tried to piece together what happened in a deadly four-car crash.

The last vehicle removed from the scene shortly after six thirty tonight. The accident happened just before noon as nearby construction worker Dan Flauger was about to take his lunch break.

"We were just getting ready to go to lunch when we heard the crunching so I ran around the corner and we heard kids screaming in one of the cars that flipped over."

As he ran to the scene to help Flauger says that's when he found out how serious the crash really was.

"I was helping with the woman, the mother of the kids and someone said the girl in the SUV got tossed."

    An overturned suv driven by a 29-year-old Appleton woman collided with another vehicle before rolling over in the median...throwing the SUV driver from her car.  Flauger sprang into action.

"I ran through the ditch trying to find her and I found her and administered CPR until police and fire got there."

    Eyewitness Shem Spiegel saw the accident unfold.

"Saw tire fly off and another object flew out of the car." Question - Pretty chaotic scene I guess? "Oh yeah it was."

     For flauger who had been doing masonry work nearby...the sounds he heard will stick with him.

"Squeeling tires and a couple crunches and that was it."

The Winnebago County Sheriffs Department says an unsafe lane change is to blame for the accident and the driver who was thrown from the SUV and killed was not wearing a seat belt.
