GCU Students Valladares and Ingle Die in Crash on Interstate 40
Near Lupton, AZ (April 8, 2022) – On Saturday, two Grand Canyon University students identified as Chelsea Nicole Valladares and Kelli Ingle, died in a crash on Interstate 40.
The fatal crash on Interstate 40 happened just after 11 p.m. on April 2 near Arizona’s border with New Mexico.
AZDPS said the students were going east on I-40 when the driver drifted left and hit a guardrail. Then the vehicle blocked the one lane when it finally stopped, but a tractor-trailer hit it.
EMS then transported the driver to a hospital in Gallup, New Mexico in critical condition. The passenger died at the crash scene.
On Thursday, the GCU identified the two victims as 21-year-old Valladares from Habor City, California, and 22-year-old Ingle, a senior with ties to Albuquerque. The two were said to be roommates.
Two GoFundMe accounts have been set up to help their families. Please click Kelli’s GoFundMe and Chelsea’s GoFundMe for more information.
Further investigation into this fatal crash is ongoing.
