Minnesota Public Radio reported earlier this afternoon that a junior at Lakeville North High School was killed in a car accident during her commute to school Wednesday morning.
The school district identified the victim as 16-year-old Alyssa Ettl.
Ettl appeared to lose control of her car on Dodd Boulevard in Lakeville at about 9:45
a.m., Lakeville Interim Police Chief John Kornmann said. Ettl's Pontiac
Grand Prix slid into oncoming traffic and was broadsided by a GMC
Acadia SUV. The accident happened about a quarter mile from the high
school.
Please talk to the teenage drivers in your house about slowing down and being extra cautious on our roads.
