A tragic accident occurred in Wilmington today when four teenagers lost their lives after the car they were in crashed into a creek.
According to the Chicago Tribune:The four families spent the night in anxious anticipation, hoping their children would return home. The teens, all high school friends, had gone out and never came back. At dawn, the heartbreaking truth was revealed: a car had been found flipped over in a creek, with the bodies of two boys and two girls—aged 14 to 17—inside. Their children.
The group was driving along Ballou Road overnight when the two-door Mitsubishi plunged into Forked Creek just west of Warner Bridge Road. Around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, a school bus driver spotted a tire sticking out of the water, prompting emergency crews to arrive on the scene. They discovered that the guardrail on the Ballou Road bridge over Forked Creek was missing. A dive team was called in and found at least one body inside the vehicle. A tow truck later pulled the Mitsubishi from the water, and a blue tent was set up as the bodies were recovered.
State records show that Cheyenne, one of the victims, had obtained her driver’s license in June and owned a Mitsubishi. Since she had her license for less than a year, she was only allowed to have one passenger in the car. This detail has raised questions about how many people were in the vehicle at the time of the crash.
