GRAND RIDGE, Fla. (AP) - Troopers say three teens died when their car skidded off the road and crashed into an oak tree in the Florida Panhandle.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol 15-year-old Ted Michael Jeter was driving a 1999 Buick about 3 p.m. Thursday when it drifted off a Jackson County road. Troopers say the driver overcorrected, causing the car to skid into the tree.
The News Herald of Panama City (http://bit.ly/QqOcCr ) reports 16-year-old Kristian Bo McClamma and 16-year-old Christopher Brandon Hobbs were passengers in the car. Jeter and McClamma were dead at the scene. Hobbs died later at Tallahassee Memorial Hospital.
