A Harrison County teen is charged with reckless homicide stemming from a crash that happened along US 27 in Pendleton County.
No alcohol or drug use is suspected in the January crash, but the Pendleton County Sheriff says that 19-year-old Bradley Beagle was on his mobile phone during the crash.

“We downloaded what is called the black box on the vehicle much like on an airplane…it records a lot of information to an accident. So gathering all that info together, we felt there was enough to at least take it to a grand jury and let them decided if an indictment was warranted,” Pendleton County Sheriff Craig Peoples told LEX 18.
A grand jury indicted Beagle for the crash that killed his friend, Harrison County High School senior Darin Williams. The sheriff says the teens were heading south on 27, when another vehicle stopped in front of them.
Beagle slammed on his brakes, causing the truck to skid across the road and flip several times, killing Williams.
Beagle was lodged in the Bourbon County Detention Center.
