Prayers needed: 2 Spencer County HS girls killed in accident, 1 injured

Please keep the girls involved in the accident yesterday and their families in your prayers. May they rest in peace.

Two teenage girls were killed and another one injured, in a single
vehicle crash in Spencer County Wednesday afternoon.

State Police say the three were in a pick-up truck when the driver
lost control on Mike Brown Road shortly before 3:30 p.m. and
overturned.

A release from Kentucky State Police says 16-year old Michella Monroe
and 17-year old Shelby Bockting were pronounced dead at the scene,
while 16-year old Jenna Rigsby was flown to University of Louisville
Hospital. All three are from Taylorsville. Right now, officials are
not saying who was driving at the time of the crash.

State Police say none of them were wearing seat belts, and the cause
of the crash remains under investigation.

All three girls are juniors at Spencer County High School, where
officials say they have grief counselors on hand this morning
