The car, they say, hit a rock on the shoulder of the road, went across the road, hit a stump, went off the road, down an embankment and hit a tree.
The 17-year-old fatal victim died at the scene, two other teens were taken to the hospital.
Numerous first responders were at the scene of that incident.
