Woman dies in early-morning crash

A Nespelem woman died Feb. 15 in an early-morning crash on SR-155, a mile south of Nespelem.

Bridget Boyd, 38, was driving a 2005 Buick Rendezvous southbound at 6:43 a.m. when it crossed into the northbound lane and onto the shoulder.

She overcorrected to the right, and the vehicle left the road. It hit an embankment, rolled, and came to rest on its wheels at milepost 43.

Boyd was ejected during the crash, a Washington State Patrol investigator reported. She was not wearing a seatbelt.

The cause of the crash is still under investigation, the Patrol stated.
