A preliminary investigation shows the driver of the Jeep lost control of his vehicle after passing a car on Plumbrook, crossed the center line and smashed into another vehicle.
The 18-year old who was killed was a passenger in the Jeep. Her name hasn't been released. The 18-year old Jeep driver and the driver of the other vehicle were taken to the hospital. Police say they have non-life threatening injuries.
A number of accidents were reported Friday morning as a result of snow-covered and slick roads. Police say drivers should slow down.
