Alabama teens killed in car accident, two others injuried
Samuel Brown and Madison Sims were killed early Saturday morning after leaving Sims prom. Two other teens in the vehicle were injured.
Police say the 2022 Tesla in which they were traveling in crashed with a semi-truck at Skyland Boulevard East and Interstate 20/59 about 1:50 a.m.
The Tesla was pinned underneath the truck’s trailer and the vehicle’s four occupants were trapped, police said.
Sims was the driver and Brown the front-seat passenger. Both were pronounced dead at the scene, according to police.
The two other teens were taken to a local hospital where they are recovering from their injuries.
Shining students
Madison Sims, 17, was a student at Paul W. Bryant High School in Tuscaloosa, and Samuel Brown Jr., 18, was a student at R.C. Hatch High School in Uniontown, according to the Perry County School District, who confirmed their deaths.
The Perry County School District’s Facebook post said, “We extend our most sincere condolences to the Brown and Sims family.
“… We ask that you please keep everyone in your thoughts and prayers as we navigate the days ahead together.”
Brown played football for R.C. Hatch. “To say we will miss him would be an understatement,” Hatch High School posted on Facebook.
Sims was a member of Bryant High’s track team. Malcolm Gross, Madison’s math teacher, told the Tuscaloosa News she “was a shining light to everyone she made contact with.”
“Although she was quiet, her presence spoke volumes to her peers and adults alike. She will be missed dearly,” Gross said.
