Riding with Lefever were four Amish carpenters. Eli Beiler, Andy Beiler, and Samuel Lapp were all hospitalized with fractures or other severe injuries, while Jacob Miller was released to his home. A mother and her five children in the other car were treated for minor injuries.
Earlier a three-car crash near Ephrata claimed the life of 19-year-old Leon Eberly.
