Campbell County Deputy Jailer Died in Fatal Car Crash on AA

The woman who was killed in a car crash Sunday night on the AA Highway in Cold Spring has been identified.

Lindsay Kent Mitchell, 22, passed away at the scene after the car she was driving was struck by a cargo van traveling in the opposite direction on the AA Highway. She was turning north from Rocky View Drive.

Mitchell was  from Burlington.

The two passengers who were also in her vehicle were seriously injured in the crash and taken to UC Medical Center.

All three victims in that vehicle worked as correctional officers at the Campbell County Detention Center. Mitchell was a Deputy Jailer and was a member of Burlington Baptist Church.

A benefit for the employees of the jail injured in the crash is being held tonight (4-18) and tomorrow (4-19) at Beer Sellar in Newport, starting at 8:00 p.m. Money will be donated directly to the families for ongoing medical bills.
