KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) - Authorities say a collision with a parked dump truck has left one teen dead and another injured in Kansas City, Kansas.

The Kansas City Star reports that police say the teens were riding in a speeding sport utility vehicle that skidded into the city work truck Thursday. It appears that the SUV then struck a guardrail and rolled over. A team of workers who were around the corner didn’t see the crash but came running after they heard the impact.

The teen who died was ejected. A girl in the SUV was taken to a hospital with minor injuries. Two other teens in the SUV weren’t hurt.



Police say the teens weren’t wearing seat belts.
