‘It Was A Huge Loss’: Family Mourns 23-year-Old Struck By Falling Debris While Fleeing Storm

Ava Ahlander, 23, a music lover from Seattle, tragically died outside the Redwest Music Festival in Salt Lake City when a large plank from a nearby construction site struck her while evacuating from strong winds. The young fan was attending the festival to see Post Malone with friends. Despite first responders reviving her at the scene, she later passed away in the hospital. Her family described her as adventurous, kind, and generous — even donating her organs as a final act of care. Watch.
