HAMILTON COUNTY, IN. (THECOUNT) — Lendon Byram and Kalen Hart, have been identified as the victims in a Saturday night double-fatal vehicle crash in Hamilton County, Indiana.

Hart, a senior at Hamilton Heights in Arcadia, and Byram a junior at Cathedral High School in Indianapolis, were both killed while on their way to prom in a two-vehicle crash near Kokomo Saturday night.

According to reports, Byram was operating a Honda Accord, with Hart as his passenger, when the vehicle came into contact with an SUV around 5:15 p.m. Saturday.

Two other young people traveling in the Honda suffered unknown injuries.

Byram and Hart both died in the crash.
