Tony DeVecht, the father of crash victim Hannah Devecht, thinks that the cable barriers on I-96 may have helped the vehicle to catapult over the wires during the Friday's accident.
Three of the five girls are still being hospitalized after the vehicle rolled over several times before it finally flipped over the cable barrier and stopped on its side. All three were in the back seat of the Honda CRV and were ejected from the vehicle when it flipped over a cable barrier.
State police said the vehicle went off the road before hitting the starting turnbuckle of the cables along the eastbound lanes, then rolling and flipping over the cables along the westbound lanes.
