Authorities ID Woman Killed In Minn. ATV Crash

(AP) Authorities have identified a woman who died when the all-terrain vehicle she was riding on crashed into a tree in central Minnesota.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner says 19-year-old Kayla Lien of Foley died of blunt force injuries on Thursday.

The Benton County Sheriff's office says Lien was the passenger on the ATV when it crashed shortly after 7 p.m. in a housing development in Duelm, which is located about 12 miles east of Sauk Rapids.

Authorities say the driver of the ATV, 18-year-old Macy McCormick of Foley, suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Neither Lien nor McCormick was wearing a helmet.
