LOVE COUNTY, OK - An accident in Love County early this morning has left one teen dead and another injured, according to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.
According to OHP, 18-year-old Taylor Chester of Ardmore was travelling west on State Highway 32 ten miles west of Marietta around 3:30 Monday morning when he drove off the roadway, overcorrected, and rolled his 2003 Nissan. His passenger, 18-year-old Dannie Gares of Burneyville, was pronounced dead at the scene. Chester was ejected from the vehicle. He was flown to a Plano hospital with unknown injuries.
Gares attended Turner High School in Love County, and Chester attended Plainview High School in Ardmore.
