The Times (Shreveport), "Lake Charles Teen Dies in Yamaha Rhino ATV Accident"
A 13-year-old Lake Charles girl died Sunday night in a Shreveport hospital following an ATV accident in south Sabine Parish, Deputy Coroner Ron Rivers said. Whitney Bland died at 10:50 p.m. at LSU Hospital in Shreveport from abdominal trauma caused by injuries sus-tained in the rollover accident, Rivers said.

Bland, who was with family in the Little Flock community, was accompanied by two friends on a Yamaha Rhino 4x4 as they traveled down a gravel dirt road. The ATV ran over a bump on the right, which caused Bland to take a hard left turn. The off-road vehicle zoomed across the road and overturned in the ditch, according to information Rivers has ob-tained in the accident investigation.
