MERRILL- Police say speed apparently was a factor in a car crash that killed two women and injured two others in the City of Merrill.

Police Chief Ken Neff says three of the women were thrown from the car when it rolled in the street around 3:30 a.m. Thursday.

Two of the women who were ejected died at the scene. Police identify them as 33-year-old Jessica Hartwig and 31-year-old Misty Glisch, both of Merrill.

Two other women from Merrill were taken to a Wausau hospital. Their conditions are unknown.

Police don't know yet who was driving. The Wisconsin State Patrol is assisting in the investigation.
