The Quintons were leaving The Wheeler House where they'd just celebrated their wedding when the husband told authorities he tried to avoid hitting a dog in the roadway when he lost control of the vehicle, according to the Georgia State Patrol. 

The car traveled off the road, overturned and ejected Kali Quinton before it came to rest with the woman trapped under the vehicle.

She died at the scene of the accident while Quinton was transported to Northside Hospital-Cherokee to be treated for his injuries.
