BONNER SPRINGS, Kan. – A three-vehicle accident turns fatal for an 18-year-old metro driver.
It happened near 130th and State Avenue just after 12 p.m. Thursday, shutting down the roadway for two hours.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says Erin Massing of Bonner Springs was driving west on State Avenue, and could not slow down her Honda Civic in time to avoid a pickup turning in front of her.
She clipped the back of the pickup, then turned into the path of a box truck coming the other way.
Massing was pronounced dead at the scene.
At least one other person was injured in the accident.
