Father, Daughter Killed In Roswell Crash

ROSWELL, GA -- A father and daughter were killed with their family dog early Monday morning in a single-vehicle accident in Roswell.

Officers were dispatched around 1:20 a.m. Nov. 28 to the site on King Road near Cox Road. A preliminary investigation indicates a black Ford Mustang was traveling north on King Road when it left the roadway and hit a stone mail box, said Roswell police spokesperson Lisa Holland.

The car demolished the first mailbox before striking another stone mailbox, Holland added.

The front passenger, identified as 21-year-old Sidney Smith, was ejected from the vehicle. Her father, Robert "Stephen" Smith, 52, was pronounced dead at the scene. Sidney Smith was transported to an area hospital where she later died from her injuries.

The family dog was also found deceased inside the vehicle due to the accident. Holland said the crash remains under investigation.
