A fast-moving storm that coated roads with ice yesterday morning led to at least five fatalities in weather-related accidents, police say. Among the fatalities were a man and a woman who were killed when their van skidded on an icy bridge in Hanover County and crashed into a tree. State Police identified the victims as Michael T. McKay, 48, and Oleta M. Caldwell, both of Ruther Glen in Caroline County. The Hanover wreck occurred about 8:45 a.m. on U.S. 1, according to Hanover Sheriff's Lt. Kenny Epling. He said the van had just crossed into Hanover from Caroline when McKay lost control of the vehicle on the icy bridge and crashed. Neither was wearing a seat belt, police said.
