Two Pell City residents were killed and two injured in a single-vehicle accident in Etowah County Tuesday night.

The victims were identified as Wallace Grant, 59, and Rita Jane Wright Grant, 52, both of Pell City in a crash that occurred at about 9:20 p.m. near Attalla, at mile marker 189.3 on U.S. 11.
