Oakes mourning loss of teenager in vehicle crash

This small town of roughly 1,800 people spent Tuesday in a state of grief, mourning the loss of one of their own. Ashley Meyer, 16, died in a two-vehicle car crash Monday near Valley City, N.D. Meyer lost control of the car she was driving, which then spun into the lane of an oncoming minivan on slush-covered Highway 1. The minivan struck the car in the driver-side door.
