Ohio Crash Survivor: 'Driver Was Speeding'

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 12 Maret 2013 | 23.12

The driver of a 4x4 that flipped into a pond, killing six teenagers in Ohio, was speeding, according to one of the two passengers who survived the crash.

The Honda Passport carrying eight people slammed into a crash barrier on a road in Warren, about 60 miles east of Cleveland, at about 7am on Sunday.

It ended up in a swampy pond and sank with five of the victims trapped inside. A sixth person thrown from the car during the crash was found underneath it.

Two boys escaped from the submerged vehicle after smashing out a rear window.

Eighteen-year-old Brian Henry told WYTV that the group were being driven home by 19-year-old Alexis Cayson.

"She took it into her hands to speed up. I'd been telling her to slow down," he said.

"Before I turned around and looked at her, the car had jerked out of control. I don't know if she did it on purpose or how fast she was going."

He added that he was not sure what the group had been doing earlier because the others were already in the vehicle when he got in.

The State Highway Patrol says the sport utility vehicle's owner filed a theft report on Monday. The owner is not related to any of the teens involved in the accident, police said.

The authorities have confirmed the driver did not have a valid licence.

None of the eight people were thought to have been wearing seatbelts. The car is designed to hold five occupants.

State police identified the other victims as Andrique Bennett, 14; Brandon Murray, 17; and Daylan Ray, Kirklan Behner and Ramone White who were all 15.

Brian Henry and 15-year-old Asher Lewis were treated for bruising and other injuries and later released.

Authorities have given little detail on where the group of friends had been and why they were out around daybreak on Sunday.

While the father of one of the dead boys said they were coming home from a sleepover at a friend's house, the mother of another boy said her son and his best friend had lied about staying over at each other's homes that evening.

She said she thinks they went to a party.

"If only he had listened," said Lisa Williamson, mother of 14-year-old Brandon Murray.

"I told him, 'Don't you go nowhere.' But they're kids."
