BETTENDORF, Iowa (AP) — Police have identified two people killed in a crash that happened in Bettendorf hours before the wreckage was discovered. The Quad-City Times reports that the crash likely happened around 2:30 a.m. Saturday along the east side of Interstate 74 . But the wreckage wasn’t discovered until 6:30 a.m. by an Iowa state trooper who was patrolling the area. Bettendorf Police Chief Keith Kimball says the car crashed into a grove of trees and would not have been visible from the road at night. Investigators found the bodies of 37-year-old Brooke Neff, of Bettendorf, and 28-year-old Archie Britcher, of Davenport, who had been thrown from the car in the crash.
