The Minnesota State Patrol has identified the driver who died during a fiery crash Sunday afternoon on I-35W in Burnsville.
Authorities say a Toyota Corolla, driven by a 56-year-old man identified as David Joseph Enright of Lakeville, was traveling south on I-35W when it veered into the ditch before striking a sound barrier and starting on fire around 4:30 p.m.
Due to the severity of the crash, the Minnesota Department of Transportation was at the scene to help the State Patrol close the highway. The road has since reopened.
Authorities have yet to say if Enright was wearing a seat belt, or if alcohol was involved.
