Authorities say two men died after their car rolled on Interstate 29 near Elk Point early Saturday.

Sheriff's deputies say 39-year-old Rodolfo Pinelo of Sioux City, Iowa, and his passenger, 32-year-old Eli Sirratt of North Carolina both died in the crash.

Authorities say the SUV that Pinelo was driving crossed the median and the opposite lanes before rolling several times in the ditch.

My family and I were on our way to Sioux City on Satruday morning when we saw the results of this accident, and let me tell you that it was one of the scariest things I have ever seen. I thought that it was the sadiest things that I have ever seen. My prayers and thoughts are with the family and friends of these people/
