A 17-year-old Woodbury teen was killed in a car accident in West Lakeland Township Friday night, according to the Washington County sheriff’s office.

Shortly after 4 p.m. deputies were called to a two-car crash on Stagecoach Trail North and 10th Street North in West Lakeland Township. Deputies and personnel from the Bayport Fire Department and Lakeview EMS attempted life-saving measures, but one of the drivers, Elizabeth “Libby” Radecki, died at the scene.

The other driver was taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries. There were no passengers in either vehicle.

The Minnesota State Patrol is helping investigate the crash. Authorities say it appears that weather Friday night was a factor in the crash.
