SISSONVILLE, W.Va. -- Just days away from the glitz and glamour of this year’s junior and senior prom, Sissonville High School students received a very serious prom message.
Wednesday, the Charleston Police Department presented the Broken Promise event.
The event simulated a fatal DUI accident.
The event, in its 11th year, aims to show students in graphic detail the deadly way many prom nights end.
From the deadly accident scene to the inevitable arrest, students watched in horror.
Parents say they hope students hear the message.
