Taylor Swift reacts to 16-year-old Swifties fan killed in car collision en route to concert in Australia

 

A 16-year-old Taylor Swift fan was killed in a head-on collision with a semitrailer on her way to the singer’s concert in Melbourne on Thursday.

 

 

Mieka Pokarier, and her younger sister Freya Pokarier, 10, were being driven to the concert by their mother, Kim Litchfield, from the Gold Coast when their car collided with a semitrailer in New South Whales at around 6 p.m., The Sydney Morning Herald reported.

Mieka, who sat in the front passenger seat, died at the scene, and her sister Freya, who was sitting in the back, was airlifted to Westmead Hospital in critical condition, 7 News Australia reported.

As of Sunday, Freya remained in an induced coma with swelling on her brain and organ damage, according to a GoFundMe page set up for the family. She also has a broken leg and a suspected shoulder fracture.

Litchfield was treated by paramedics at the scene of the crash and then taken to Dubbo Hospital with minor injuries. The driver of the semitrailer was taken to the same hospital in stable condition, 7 News Australia reported.

The family was on an 11-day road trip with plans to see Swift perform in both Sydney and Melbourne, Karleigh Fox, the girls’ godmother, told the Morning Herald.
