(KMZA)--A single-vehicle wreck in Pottawatomie County Wednesday morning claimed the life of a Westmoreland woman.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says killed in the wreck on K-99 Highway, south of Marten Road, was 34-year-old Nicole Lynn Chilcott.
The Patrol says Chilcott was southbound when her Dodge Ram pickup went left of center into the northbound lane and left the roadway with no sign of braking or evasive maneuver. The vehicle jumped a culvert and struck a tree.
Chilcott, who was buckled up at the time of the wreck, was transported to Topeka’s Stormont-Vail Hospital, where she died.
The wreck was reported shortly after 6:30.
