Crash kills four

Nebraska State PatrolBEATRICE, Neb. (AP) — Three of the four women killed in a crash in southeast Nebraska Saturday were Creighton University students and the fourth was a former student. The Nebraska State Patrol say it happened just after 7:30 p.m. Saturday.

The Patrol says a Honda CRV was southbound on Highway 77 south of Beatrice when the driver of the vehicle swerved to miss a deer. The car crossed into the northbound lane where it was struck head on.

Creighton held a funeral Mass in honor of the four women at St. John’s Church on Sunday.

The crash killed Akuel Majouk and her three passengers: Mariana Ramirez, Jennifer Guzman and Yoselin Deleon. Ramirez was a former Creighton student, and the other three were current students. The driver of a second vehicle involved in the crash was seriously hurt, but will likely survive.
