Teen in Kansas dies in car crash caused by shoplifting suspects
A tragic incident in Coffeyville, Kansas resulted in the loss of a young life after a car carrying a 17-year-old girl and her 15-year-old sister was hit by fleeing suspects involved in a shoplifting incident that originated in Oklahoma. The pursuit began in Owasso, Oklahoma after a report of theft at a store. The suspects attempted to evade the police, leading to a high-speed chase through several towns before the crash in Coffeyville. The 15-year-old girl was airlifted to a Tulsa hospital where she later passed away from her injuries. Two suspects from Missouri, Tenisha Mayberry and Cortez Wasson Jr., have been charged in Kansas in connection with the chase and crash. Mayberry faces charges including fleeing from law enforcement and aggravated battery, while Wasson was charged with drug paraphernalia possession and other offenses. The suspects are likely to face amended charges following the tragic death of the young girl.
