TOWN OF YORKVILLE -- Sheriff's authorities say one of the three teens injured in a Racine County crash has died of her injuries.
 
Officials say 17-year-old Taylor Skendziel died Thursday night. She had been airlifted to Froedtert Hospital in the Milwaukee area following the collision Wednesday in the Town of Yorkville.
 
Two 15-year-old passengers in the car driven by Skendziel suffered injuries. One has been released from the hospital.
