Two teenagers accidentally run over by a ute as they slept in a swag at a party with old school friends near Orange, west of Sydney, have now both died in hospital. Both were 19.



The woman died in Orange Base Hospital this morning, a hospital spokeswoman said and the man, who had been sleeping next to her, died this afternoon.

Police said the pair were among a group of about 30 youngsters, who had gathered for a party at a property at Molong, north-west of Orange, on Monday night.

Canobolas Local Area Command duty officer Peter Atkins said yesterday that most of the group had camped there for the night near their cars.

Inspector Atkins said a 17-year-old boy was moving his ute just before dawn yesterday and accidentally ran over the two teens
