The coroner says he is still notifying the victim’s family and cannot release the victim’s name.
The coroner also said that the driver is a 16-year-old girl who was so shaken up by the accident that she had to go to the hospital. Police are talking to her to try and understand what happened.
An autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow in Frankfort.
