Deputies in Pendleton County say a teenager is dead after a crash Monday afternoon. It happened on U.S. 27 just before 1 p.m.
Deputies say 18-year-old Bradlee Beagle of Cynthiana was driving a 2008 Chevy pickup and swerved to avoid hitting the car in front of him. That car had apparently stopped to avoid hitting an animal.
Investigators say Beagle crossed the 3-lane roadway and went over an embankment, flipping several times. The passenger in the truck, 18-year-old Darin Williams of Cynthiana, was ejected and pronounced dead on the scene. Investigators say Williams was not wearing a seat belt.

Officials with Harrison County High School say they will have counseling available for students who knew Williams. They say this is the second student from their senior class to die in a car accident in just two months.
