Site of fatal McMinnvile, Tenn., automobile crash.MCMINNVILLE, Tenn. – Four Tennessee high school seniors returning to play a game of zombie tag with their friends were killed in a single-car crash over the weekend, officials and the mother of one of the teens told The Associated Press on Monday.
Kaimen Collins, Christopher Frazier, Dominique Pinegar and Shanna Seiderer had left the game to make a run to McDonald’s when they crashed early Sunday morning, said Kimberly Dykes, mother of Collins. All four attended Warren County High School, in the middle of the state, about an hour and a half south of Nashville. The cause of the crash remained unknown, with the Tennessee Highway Patrol investigating.
Dykes likened the group’s game of zombie tag to hide-and-seek, with players dressing in dark clothes and chasing each other around.
She cried quietly as she described her son in a telephone interview.
“He was an awesome kid,” she said. “He never got in trouble. … If I told him to be home at 11, he was home at 11.”
