BURNEYVILLE, Oklahoma -- An Oklahoma community is mourning the loss of one of their youngest. Wednesday hundreds gathered in Burneyville to remember an 8-year-old who was killed in a four-wheeler accident.

Jalen Wolfe died when an ATV pulling 55-gallon drums flipped over at a community fundraiser on Friday. Four other children were injured on the ride.

The small town is rallying around her family.

"The community's coming together for them and to support them and I know they're going to shower them with love," said Leann Hart, a family friend.

There are several fundraisers planned to help pay for Jalen's funeral. The town has already raised $6,000.
