A Seminole County crash that killed two teenagers has now claimed the life of a third, authorities said.

Abdallah Aljazzazi, 18, of Oklahoma City died Wednesday from injuries he suffered in the rollover crash July 2 on Interstate 40 two miles west of U.S. 377, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol reported.

James Hammett and Kenneth Wright, both 19 and from Piedmont, died at the scene when the 2000 Plymouth Neon's tire treads separated and the car overturned before hitting a tree.

Medics took Aljazzazi in critical condition by helicopter to the University of Oklahoma Medical Center in Oklahoma City, where he died from head and internal injuries, troopers said.

Two other teenagers also were seriously injured in the crash.

Aljazzazi and Wright were not wearing seat belts, and the car's air bags did not deploy, the OHP reported. By MATT BARNARD, World Staff Writer
