Carrick Residence Hall (South) Death

UT student Kendra Kristin Main, 18, of Maryville died in a freak accident in the fire lane outside South Carrick Hall when she was struck by her Honda Prelude and pinned underneath the car. The hood of the car was up, the keys were in the ignition, and (while the motor was not running) the car was in gear. Police speculated that she might have been having car trouble, opened the hood, and gone around to the front of the car to investigate. The car rolled forward and trapped her underneath the engine in front of the wheels.
