OAKRIDGE, Ore. (AP) -- A La Pine couple engaged to be married in two months died when their car was clipped by another car trying to pass two semi trucks and knocked into oncoming traffic on Oregon Highway 58, state police said.

Chauntal J. Aarness, 21, and Kevin Walter McVicker, 22, died at the scene of the crash at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, about three miles east of Oakridge.

Aarness' car was knocked into the path of an oncoming semi and was struck broadside.

The driver of the car that clipped Aarness' car was identified as Jeffrey Gustafson, 21, of Rancho Cordova, Calif. He was arrested on two counts of criminally negligent homicide and reckless driving and was being held Tuesday night in the Lane County Jail.

The highway was closed for three hours following the crash.
