Fourth Body Found After Buggy Accident

By Angela Hatton

Dublin, KY – Emergency workers in Graves County have found the body of a fourth Amish child killed when a buggy flipped in a rain-swollen creek. The discovery dashed hopes that the 11-year-old girl might have been alive and clinging to a tree or rock through the night. Emergency workers had already found the bodies of a 5-month-old, a 5-year-old and a 7-year-old. Three of the children were siblings and one was a cousin. Two adults and three other children were able to escape. The horse that was pulling the buggy also survived. Officials say the group may not have realized the creek had risen.
