14-year-old girl killed in Ohio tractor accident


COVINGTON, Ohio (AP) — Authorities say a 14-year-old girl was killed and four members of her family injured when an agricultural tractor they were riding on went out of control and flipped in a western Ohio village.

The Miami County Sheriff’s Office identified the girl killed in the Wednesday afternoon crash in Covington as Michelle Burns.

The Dayton Daily News reports the tractor was pulling a trailer filled with animal feed and some hand tools when the driver, Michelle’s 43-year-old mother Tammy Burns, apparently lost control on a down incline.

Also injured were 20-year-old Lisa Warner and her children, 18-month-old Darrin Warner and 1-month-old Kelly Warner. Lisa Warner is Tammy Burns’ daughter.

Darrin Warner was in serious condition, and Kelly Warner was in fair condition. The conditions of the others weren’t available.
