On April 27, 2016, Kayla Canedo, Brittany Feldman, Christina Semeria and Halle Scott died in an off-campus crash. The driver, Agnes Kim, survived but was critically injured. 

The accident happened on a Wednesday night in Watkinsville, which is just outside of Athens. The girls were in a white Toyota Camry, driving northbound on Greensboro Highway when the car, for unknown reasons, went into the southbound lanes and struck a blue Chevrolet Cobalt. 

Investigators previously said they ruled out alcohol and drugs in the accident. Authorities also said data from the vehicles didn't show any evidence that either car was speeding.
