JACKSON, Miss. (AP) - Hazardous driving conditions continue over much of northern Mississippi amid the remnants of a storm system that caused at least three deaths in the state.
Heavy snow fell across much of north Mississippi on Wednesday causing hazardous travel. The Highway Patrol says roads will remain icy through Thursday.
In Oxford, Lafayette County Coroner Rocky Kennedy says a 22-year-old University of Mississippi student died Wednesday from injuries he suffered after being thrown from a sled that ran into sign.
The student's name has not been released.
State troopers say 2-year-old Bella Titu died Wednesday when the vehicle she was riding in hydroplaned, left the road and hit a tree.
On Tuesday, 24-year-old Tranell Epps was killed when his car hit a patch of ice on a bridge and slid into an 18-wheeler.
