A Rapid City woman died from a two-vehicle crash yesterday on US Highway 16, six miles west of Rapid City, SD.
The names of the persons involved have not been released pending notification of family members.
Preliminary crash information indicates the driver of a 1996 Toyota Corolla had entered the intersection on US 16 from Busted Five Court when a westbound 2019 GMC Sierra on US 16 collided with the Corolla. The Corolla spun onto the north shoulder, ejecting the passenger.
Both the driver and passenger in the Corolla were transported to Monument Health with life-threatening injuries. Neither were wearing seat belts. The passenger later died from her injuries. The driver of the GMC sustained minor injuries.
The South Dakota Highway Patrol is investigating the crash. All information released so far is only preliminary.
