A 15-year-old bicyclist was killed over the weekend, state police confirmed today.

At about 8:25 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 27, a vehicle driven by Millbrook resident Melanie Morrow struck a 15-year-old riding a bicycle on Alabama 14, near the 163-mile marker — about a mile east of Millbrook, said Jeremy Burkett, a spokesperson for the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency.

The 15-year-old was fatally injured in the crash, Burkett said, and the teen was pronounced dead on the scene.

Burkett said that no further information is available as ALEA's Highway Patrol Division continues to investigate. More: Accessing local journalism is even easier with the Advertiser app
