Four young adults die after vehicle hit by Amtrak train

LAKELAND - Friends and family came to the West Lakeland train crossing where four young people died Monday.

Some picked through the debris that littered the tracks, looking for personal items of their loved ones killed when their car was hit by an Amtrak train.

The bodies were so disfigured they couldn't be identified immediately. "They attempted identification at the scene by tattoos and personal items, but these need to be made official,''

Lakeland police released the names of all four victims Tuesday afternoon. They are Brian Guy, 22, Brittany Stickney, 18, Whitney Pressnell, 20, and Cecerra Lee Benafield, 20.
