Serious Christmas Eve crash turns fatal as woman dies on Christmas
A woman has died from her injuries after a serious crash that took place on Christmas Eve.
According to Deputy Chief Joseph Razza, the accident occurred last night at approximately 9:30 p.m. at the intersection of Plainfield Pike and Peck Hill Road in Johnston. Upon arrival, officers discovered that there were two vehicles involved.
Razza stated that two people from one vehicle were not seriously injured. The operator of the other vehicle, however, a female, was transported to the hospital, but died early this morning from her injuries.
The accident is still being investigated and reconstructed to see if speed may have been a factor, but at this time there are no signs of chemical impairment or distracted driving according to Razza.
Police are not releasing the name of the woman who died pending notification to her family.
