SANTA FE – Two teenage brothers were killed Tuesday in a head-on crash in rural Santa Fe County as they drove to Moriarity for school activities, the county Sheriff’s Office said.

The brothers lived in the Stanley area.

The pickup’s 58-year-old driver was treated for injuries that weren’t life-threatening.
