Woman, 27, killed in crash on I-293 in Bedford, N.H.
A 27-year-old woman has been identified as the victim who died following a car crash early Thursday morning on Interstate 293 in Bedford, N.H., officials said Saturday.
The victim was identified as Kayla Ramirez, of Manchester, N.H., the New Hampshire Department of Safety said in a statement.
A 19-year-old, Shaylynn Price, of Pittsfield, N.H., was injured in the crash , officials said.
Ramirez, who was pronounced dead at the scene, was not wearing a seatbelt, officials said earlier this week.
Troopers went to I-293 for the report of a single-vehicle crash at about 12:45 a.m., officials said Thursday.
A Chevy Malibu, driven by Ramirez, drifted to the left off the roadway and the front of the car struck the end cap of a guardrail, according to the preliminary investigation, officials said.
