Discussion about this date:
On this day, four university students died after a truck hit their van on Interstate 69 in Indiana.
One of the survivors, Whitney Cerak, was mistakenly identified as one of the deceased students (Laura van Ryn) by local officials. van Ryn's parents sat beside Cerak in the hospital for weeks, completely unaware that she wasn't their daughter. Meanwhile, Cerak's family held a large funeral and buried van Ryn, thinking she was their daughter.
Due to the severity of Cerak's injuries, her real identity didn't become clear for five weeks, when the swelling subsided and she was able to write her real name on a piece of paper.
