2 Students Dead, 3 Others Injured In Rollover Crash
ADAMS COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4) - Two Bennett High School students were killed and three others were injured after a rollover crash Tuesday afternoon.
The SUV the students were traveling in rolled over on 38th Avenue near Penrith Road. Three people in the back were ejected. They were not wearing seat belts.
Bennett School District 29J released the names of the injured students as Malachi Clifford, 18; James Dickerson, 16; and Ciara Bingham, 15.
