Baylor University students were reeling Tuesday after learning that one of their classmates apparently tried to take her life Monday afternoon by kneeling down in traffic on Interstate 35.
“It was devastating,” said Baylor junior Samone White of her reaction to learning that McKenzie Fergus, a 20-year-old freshman studying film and media, walked into the northbound lanes of the interstate, knelt down and was struck by an oncoming Ford F-150 pickup.
