An official says three people have died in a crash on a western Kentucky highway.

News outlets report the three-vehicle crash occurred Friday morning on the Pennyrile Parkway in Christian County.

He said three people from one car died and a fourth person from the same vehicle was taken to a hospital with unknown injuries. He said a person in the other car suffered minor injuries and the truck driver wasn't injured.
