Teen driver killed, two passengers hurt when vehicle overturns

A 19-year-old driver from Strawberry was killed and two passengers hurt Monday night when their vehicle overturned in Lawrence County, authorities said.

Dylan T. Brady was driving a 1995 Chevrolet south on Lawrence County Road 269 shortly after 8:30 p.m. in Smithville when he lost control in a curve and the vehicle overturned, according to an Arkansas State Police report. Police say conditions were foggy at the time.

Brady was fatally injured. Two passengers — 17-year-old Danielle B. Ervin and 22-year-old Kyle G. Bristow — were taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital in Walnut Ridge. No information on their conditions was included in the report.

The death was the 386th fatality in a traffic accident in Arkansas so far this year, according to preliminary figures.
