A community in Central Illinois is in mourning a day after two local teens were killed while sledding at a Colorado ski resort.
Paula Crane, superintendent of the Prairie Central school district in Fairbury, confirmed Monday that two students from Prairie Central High School died in a “tragic accident.”She declined to identity them out of respect for their families. A local church will be offering counseling for any students or staff.
Authorities say both teens then landed on hard ice and suffered blunt force trauma. They were pronounced dead at the scene. “Our thoughts and condolences go out to the families and friends of the individuals involved in this tragic incident,” Sheriff Jaime FitzSimons said. The teens’ bodies have been turned over to the county coroner’s office, which will determine the exact cause and manner of death.Copper Mountain Ski Resort, which lies roughly 75 miles west of Denver, is a popular draw for skiers and riders with over 2,500 acres of high alpine terrain.
