An Akron teen died in a car accident on Interstate 76 early Easter morning.

Newchannel5 reports, the 17-year-old girl was on the eastbound shoulder near the Arlington-Kelly Avenue exit when a 63-year-old Tallmadge man slammed into her vehicle.

The girl was transported to Akron City Hospital and later died due to the injuries sustained in the crash. The other driver suffered non life-threatening injuries.

Alcohol is a factor in the crash, but charges have not been filed yet, police said.

Police are still investigating why the victim was on the side of the highway.
