Officials have released security video from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport showing moments before a wrong-way crash that killed two drivers earlier this week. 

The incident was first reported around 7:45 p.m. on Tuesday when 56-year-old Ronald Wayne Mollenahuer of Peoria was spotted driving in the eastbound lanes headed westbound from the airport. That wrong-way vehicle continued in the wrong direction from Interstate 10 to the southbound SR-51 ramp where the crash occurred.
