The West Ridge High School community is mourning the loss of a freshman following a fire on Saturday morning. The Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office responded to reports of a camper fire in Bristol, where they discovered Gracie McBryant, 14, was killed in the fire.

West Ridge High says the entire community is mourning the loss of Gracie McBryant, and the school’s band is taking donations to assist her family. Mental health counselors will be at the Blountville school this week to help students and staff.
