(KNZA)--A single-vehicle wreck early Saturday morning on U.S. 75 Highway, north of Topeka, claimed the life of a Hoyt woman.

The Shawnee County Sheriff’s Department says killed in the wreck was 23-year-old Katie Perkins, formerly of Valley Falls.

The Sheriff's Office said in a press release that Perkins was northbound when her Ford Expedition left the highway and overturned, coming to rest in a wooded area east of the highway.    

Perkins, who was not wearing a seat belt, was ejected.

She was pronounced dead at the scene and was the lone occupant in the vehicle.

The Sheriff’s Office says the wreck, which was reported shortly after 2:30 Saturday morning south of Northwest 35th Street, remains under investigation.

According to her obituary, Perkins was a 2012 graduate of Valley Falls High School.

Survivors include four children.

Services for Perkins will be held Friday morning at 10:30 at the Mercer Funeral Home in Valley Falls, with burial to follow in the Valley Falls Cemetery.
