A Vicksburg woman was killed after her car collided with an 18-wheeler Thursday night on Interstate 20 near the Flowers exit.
Warren County Coroner Doug Huskey said Natalie Nicole Ross, 33, was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries she received in the wreck.
According to state trooper Sgt. Kervin Stewart, the Mississippi Highway Patrol learned of a two-vehicle crash just before 7 p.m. on I-20 in Warren County.
“Preliminary reports indicate that a passenger car was traveling westbound, hydro-planed causing the driver to lose control, leaving the roadway, where it struck an embankment and came back into the westbound lanes,” Stewart said. “As the passenger car came back into the westbound lanes, it collided with a westbound 18-wheeler.”
Stewart said several passengers were injured and transported to local hospitals. The driver of the 18-wheeler was not injured.
