    A 15-year-old girl who was killed when the car she was in with five other teenagers rolled in the South West has been remembered for her ability to bring a “ray of sunshine everywhere she went”. Caitlyn Bragger was a passenger in a Toyota Landcruiser driving on Scarp Road near the intersection of Hoffman Road, in Hoffman, east of Yarloop, when it left the road, rolling several times on Saturday night. Police say the car was being driven by a 16-year-old boy.
