(MIDLAND, TX) —A 13-year-old was at the wheel of the pickup truck that swerved in front of a van carrying the University of the Southwest's men's and women's golf teams, killing nine people, including the underage driver, according to the National Transportation Safety Board.
Six members of the team and the head coach were killed in the crash. Two remain in critical condition at a Texas hospital.
In addition to the 13-year-old, whose name was not released, a 38-year-old man, Henrich Siemens, was in the Dodge pickup. Both were killed, as well as the coach, Tyler James, and six golfers in the passenger van. Investigators were able to determine the teen was in the driver's seat based on the size of the remains inside the truck, according to Landsberg.
