WOODHAVEN (WWJ) – A student at Anderson High School in Southgate has died after a car crash at a busy intersection in Woodhaven over the weekend.
Jasmine Alhachami, 18, was killed in the crash, which happened shortly after 10 p.m. at the intersection of West and Allen Roads, according to a report from the News-Herald.
Woodhaven police officials say they received multiple calls about the crash shortly after it happened, and officers arrived within minutes.
When authorities showed up, a woman was holding her two dogs outside of her black GMC Terrain, while a Good Samaritan told an officer that four occupants inside a black 2000 Lexus were conscious and breathing, according to the News-Herald.
The officer tended to those victims until emergency vehicles arrived.
Witnesses told police the driver of the black Lexus was headed east on West Road and ran through a red light, into the path of the GMC, which was headed south on Allen.
Alhachami died of her injuries several hours later, police officials said.
The driver of the Lexus and another passenger were undergoing surgery for their injuries, according to the report. The woman in the GMC and another person in the Lexus were treated and released from the hospital, the report said.
Authorities have not released any details about the other people involved in the crash.
Police officials say they have not yet determined whether drugs or alcohol played a role in the crash.
Students at Anderson High School were told of the crash Monday morning. Grief counselors were on-hand for anyone who needed to talk, officials said.
Police are still investigating the crash.
