Tori Mayo Survives Crash With One Amazing Injury

CENTRAL — In a week when two Central youth died in car accidents, Central High senior Tori Mayo almost became a third.  Last Tuesday, the same day Tyler Kyzar was killed, Tori was traveling up Greenwell Springs Road at what she described as an excessive speed.  “The car began to hydroplane and weave back and forth.  Then it began to flip over.  I don’t know how many times.  I just closed my eyes, knowing there was nothing I could do.  The car landed upside down.  I was strapped in.  A man came up and said, ‘Are you all right?’ and I said, ‘Fine!’  I unstrapped and crawled out without a scratch, except for one.”

“My palm was bleeding.  When I cleaned the blood away, there was the cut — in the form of a small cross.   That was my only injury!  There were angels surrounding me.  God has a bigger plan for my life!”

“These roads are extremely dangerous and so dark at night.”

Tori, who plays volleyball and runs track for Central High, plans to go to college in Tennessee and study business management.
