UNIONTOWN, Pa. (AP) - A coroner has identified two 17-year-olds who were killed in a high-speed car crash in Pennsylvania.
The Fayette County coroner says Smithfield resident Kyler Catlett was driving and Uniontown resident Yolanda Jackson was the front-seat passenger.
Both died when the car they were in crashed Tuesday night in Georges Township.
A fire chief estimates the vehicle was going faster than 100 mph before it went up an embankment, hit a telephone pole and then hit a stone wall.
A 16-year-old girl in the back seat was flown to a hospital in West Virginia. Her condition hasn’t been released.
All three occupants were wearing seatbelts.
Catlett attended Albert Gallatin High School and a dance school. Jackson attended Uniontown High School.
