Little Rock, AR : Teen killed and three others were injured in a single-vehicle crash at Arkansas 45 on Monday, 26th September, 2016
A Springdale teenager was killed early Monday when the vehicle he was a passenger in traveled off a wet road in rainy weather and crashed at a lumber yard, state police say.
The single-vehicle crash occurred around 4 a.m. when driver Mike Givlend, 25, of Springdale was traveling north on Arkansas 45 at Arkansas 12 in Madison County, according to a preliminary report.
State police said Givlend failed to stop at the intersection, causing his 2008 Kia to travel off the highway into Pine Creek Lumber, where it crashed into a stack of lumber.
