WOOSTER, Ohio -- An Amish girl injured when a pickup truck hit her buggy has died following the accident that also killed two of her siblings. The Ohio State Highway Patrol says 13-year-old Mary Yoder died Saturday after being taken to Akron Children's Hospital. The girl was riding with a sister and brother in a horse-drawn cart Thursday night in Holmes County in northeast Ohio when they were hit from behind by a pickup truck. The patrol says 14-year-old Fannie Yoder and 15-year-old Ivan Yoder were killed at the scene. The driver of the pickup told police he couldn't see the cart because of glare on his windshield from the setting sun.
