ALEXANDER – A teenager from Baileyville was killed early Saturday morning in a single-car crash on Cooper Road.

Jordan Brown, 16, the son of Dawn and David Brown, died instantly in the crash, according to Deputy Thomas Chambers of the Washington County Sheriff’s Department.

The initial call came in at about 4:25 a.m. Saturday. According to Chambers, the vehicle Brown was driving left the road, overturned and struck a tree. The boy suffered severe head trauma in the crash and died instantly, he said.

The vehicle later caught fire and was destroyed. The Alexander Fire Department fought the blaze.
