TELL CITY, Ind. — A southern Indiana woman serving in the Middle East with the Navy has died from car accident injuries.

Navy Lt. Ligia Cohen said 19-year-old Master-at-Arms Seaman Apprentice Shayna Ann Schnell of Tell City suffered a massive brain injury in a Sept. 25 accident and died Oct. 1.

Cohen said Schnell was a passenger in a rental car when the accident happened. She did not know whether the sailor was on duty at the time and had no further details on the accident.

Schnell joined the Navy in July 2006. She worked base security and stood watches while assigned to Naval Security Force Bahrain in the United Arab Emirates.
