St. Joseph’s 17-year-old Nadirah Edwards passed away Thursday from injuries she received from hit by a dump truck at the intersection of County Roads 1850 North and 2200 East in Stanton Township Wednesday afternoon.
The driver and passenger in the dump truck were not hurt.
Edwards was driving west on 1850 North and stopped when she reached the stop sign at the intersection with 2200 East. The dump truck was heading south on 2200 East. The dump truck did not have a stop sign. The drivers reported seeing Edwards stop at the intersection, but as she continued on, the dump truck could not stop as she drove in front of them.
The investigation into the crash is ongoing.
Edwards was a senior at St. Joseph-Odgen High School.
