The Alabama Law Enforcement Agency (ALEA) said the crash occurred at approximately 7:29 a.m. Sunday on Alabama Highway 17 near Sumter County Road 42, about 11 miles south of York.

Investigators said 34-year-old Iesha L. Pritchett was driving a 2002 Buick Century when it collided with a 2023 Nissan Kicks.

Following the initial impact, troopers believe the Nissan left the roadway and overturned.
