A central Iowa girl was killed and two other teens were badly hurt when the car they were riding in collided with a semi-truck on Thursday afternoon. Des Moines police say a car with three teenagers inside rolled through a stop sign and into an intersection where it was broadsided by a semi-truck.

One of the passengers in the car, 14-year-old Savannah Bonds of Des Moines, was killed. The other two teens were reported in critical condition, 17-year-old Dayton Anderson and 18-year-old Mackenzie Tilton. It’s unclear which one was driving. The trucker wasn’t hurt.
