twelve schoolchildren on the bus that morning. Fortunately none of them were physically injured and were taken to school via another bus. Things, however, did not end so well for Katelyn.<\/p>\n<p>It was at the site of the crash that one of the first responders took a picture of the accident to warn others.<\/p>\n<p>Katelyn had been killed instantly. When police searched the wreckage they found she still had her phone in her hand.<\/p>\n<p>The police now believe she had her eyes on her phone instead of on the road, which is why she didn\u2019t realize the bus in front of her had slowed down so much.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h-what-the-police-wrote-on-facebook\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the police wrote on Facebook:<\/h2>\n<p><em>***PAY ATTENTION!!***<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The driver of the car was 17 years old. No black marks because she never hit the brakes and she still had the cell phone in her hand when they removed her from the car.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>It was Katelyn\u2019s mother, Shelia, who had asked her daughter to pick up her big sister than morning. It was the last conversation the two of them would ever have.<\/p>\n<p>When Katelyn didn\u2019t show up at her sister, Courtney\u2019s, work place at 7am, it was assumed she was simply delayed. By 7:30am Courtney had started to grow concerned and so published a post on Facebook asking if anyone had seen Katelyn.<\/p>\n<p>It was soon after that the family was given the devastating news.<\/p>\n<p><strong>It\u2019s always a terrible tragedy when such a young soul is taken away from us, but even more so when it\u2019s in an accident that could have been avoided.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Our thoughts go out to Katelyn\u2019s family.
