Fatal Antioch crash: 'People are kind of numb around here'
Two high schools in northern Lake County were mourning the loss today of two teenagers who died when their SUV crashed into a tree in Antioch in heavy rain.
"People are kind of numb around here," said Brian Glashagel, a football coach at Antioch High School, where one of the victims, Joel Wittkamp, 16, was a student.
"There are a lot of people who stayed home today," said Nathan Hawksworth, who knew the other victim, Ashley Seay, 17 of Lindenhurst.
