OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – A 22-year-old woman died Saturday when a vehicle struck her along the interstate in south-central Oklahoma City, reports Fox 25.
The auto-pedestrian crash occurred shortly before 4:45 a.m. on the eastbound side of I-240 at South Western Avenue. This is north of Lightning Creek Park in the Taylor Park area.
