11-Year-Old Girl Hit By Car In Helena Dies
Authorities say an 11-year-old girl died after she was hit by a car on an Interstate 15 onramp in Helena.
Lewis and Clark County Coroner Mickey Nelson says Haile Barrett of Helena was walking with a friend across the two-lane onramp at 11th Avenue when she was struck at about 5:30 p.m. Thursday. She died at a local hospital about 45 minutes later.
No other injuries were reported.
The accident happened near the Capitol interchange, where a pedestrian bridge is currently being constructed.
The bridge is expected to be completed the second week in November.
