SPANISH FORK, Utah (AP) - October 16, 2011
Utah County sheriff's Sgt. Spencer Cannon says the three girls
were taking photos when they were hit Saturday evening in Spanish
Fork Canyon. He says the teens apparently knew one train was
coming, but did not realize another train was coming from the
opposite direction and became caught between them.
The Deseret News reports Essa Ricker and Kelsea Webster were
killed in the accident. Kelsea's sister, Savannah Webster,
underwent surgery Sunday at a hospital.
Cannon says one train either hit the girls or threw them into
the path of the other, but it is also possible they were hit by
both trains. The area has two sets of tracks.
