Flagstaff, Arizona—Accident investigators with the Flagstaff Police Department are reporting that Charles Alderson and Leah Alderson, both 61 and from Cottonwood, were killed in a single vehicle accident on U.S. 89.

Charles Alderson was driving the vehicle when it left the roadway on U.S. 89 near Snowflake Drive at about 10:30 a.m. Emergency responders arrived on scene and found both occupants in serious condition. Charles Alderson and Leah Alderson were both transported to Flagstaff Medical Center but died soon after arrival.

Investigators with the Accident Reconstruction Team at the Flagstaff Police Department are still working to identify the cause of the crash. One theory is that Charles Alderson suffered a medical emergency before losing control of the vehicle.

We offer our condolences to the family and friends of Charles and Leah Alderson.
