A car accident in Athens, Alabama killed one person and injured two others on Christmas Day. The two-car crash happened on U.S. 72 and one of the cars caught on fire. The victim's body could not be recognized.

Limestone County Coroner Mike West said Tuesday that traffic-homicide investigators did find identification in the deceased driver's 1991 Buick, but authorities would not release a name until the death could be properly confirmed.

"We're trying to get hold of dental records to see if they match," West said.

The driver and passenger of the other vehicle were both injured and taken to Huntsville Hospital to be treated for their injuries. The driver was seriously injured. The cause of the car accident is not known and the police are still investigating.
