An 18-year-old woman was killed Saturday on a rural stretch of OK-72 near West Dozer Road in Muskogee County after a two-vehicle crash that state troopers are still working to untangle. Authorities identified the driver as Isabella Clay and said she was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the other vehicle was injured, according to officials, and the collision remains under investigation as troopers sort through how the wreck unfolded, as reported by FOX23.
According to FOX23, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol reported that the crash happened when another vehicle crossed the centerline and struck Clay’s southbound car. Troopers told the outlet that neither vehicle was carrying passengers and that emergency crews responded to the scene. FOX23 also reported that troopers did not list any immediate arrests or citations tied to the collision.
