Woodbury Police reported a single vehicle car crash on Saturday that left one teenager dead and four injured. At 11 p.m. Saturday, a 2015 Honda Accord veered off Settlers Ridge Parkway at Sundance Lane in Woodbury. Our lawyers represent teenagers in a car accident.
Unfortunately, a 17-year-old East Ridge High School student died in the car accident, according to Woodbury police. In addition, four other students in the vehicle were injured. All of the teenage boys were 17 and attending East Ridge High School.
The car hit a tree, and the force of the impact split the car in two. One teenager was ejected from the car and died at the scene. The driver was taken to Woodwinds Hospital. However, his condition is not known. In addition, three others in the car were taken to Regions Hospital, where they remain in serious but stable condition. Police did not release other details.
