Mankato Student dies

On Monday morning the Star Tribune released the name of the two girls who were struck by a car very early Sunday morning. The girl who died, Rissa Amen-Reif, is from my hometown, Eden Prairie, and she graduated with my sister and my boyfriend. We found out what had happened on Suday, and they both new of her in High School. The other girl, Corinne L. Overstake, was injured in the accident.
The Pioneer Press reported that Reif had tripped and fell into the road as they were trying to cross the street. Overstake was trying to help her up when they were struck by the car.
Both girls went Minnesota State University, Mankato. They were supposedly coming home from a sorority party and got lost.
