Fatal accident in Mansfield claims life of 18-year-old

According to Mansfield police, the rainy weather on Monday is thought to have played a role in a fatal single-vehicle accident that claimed the life of an 18-year-old. The incident occurred at the intersection of Bowman Street and Poth Road, where officers responded to a crash with serious injuries. The driver, identified as Tyson Christopher Adkins, was tragically ejected from the compact sedan and pronounced dead at the scene despite efforts to save him.
