AKRON -- One of the five Fulton County teens injured Saturday in a traffic accident near Akron has died at a Fort Wayne hospital, authorities said.

A Fulton County dispatcher said Brandon Keller, 18, of Rochester, died late Monday at Parkview Hospital. Staff there confirmed that Keller was no longer listed as a patient.

Keller was one of 10 people sent to area hospitals after the crash, including the teens who were riding in the same car, Indiana State Police said.

The accident happened about 4:20 p.m. near the intersection of State Road 19 and East Division Road, north of Akron, when a westbound car driven by 17-year-old Seth Mathias, of Rochester, collided with an SUV headed north on State Road 19, driven by 33-year-old Timothy Richey of Huntington, Ind., police said.

All five occupants of the 1996 Chrysler Sebring driven by Mathias were flown to Parkview, where hospital officials said Mathias and Jessica Imel, 15, of Rochester, remained in critical condition early Tuesday.

Upgraded to serious condition was Trevor Williams, 17, of Akron, with a head injury. Courtney Engle, 16, of Akron, remained in fair condition, hospital staff said.

Five people traveling in Richey's 2001 Dodge Durango were taken to Woodlawn Hospital in Rochester, where two of them were treated. They are Richey, who was treated and released for a knee injury, and Samantha Richey, 13, whose left wrist was broken.

Investigators said the accident happened when Mathias failed to yield the right of way to Richey at the intersection.
