Missouri woman dies in I-35 rollover accident

PERRY, Okla. (AP) — A 65-year-old woman from Kansas City, Mo., has died after a rollover crash on Interstate 35 about six miles north of Perry in Noble County.



The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says Paula K. Vannaman died after the accident that happened about 4:30 p.m. Thursday.



Troopers say Vannaman's southbound vehicle drifted off the left side of the road, then swerved right, then back to the left before going into a broadslide and crossing the center median.



Vannaman's vehicle rolled 1½ times, slid across the northbound lanes on its top and was hit by a pickup driven by 55-year-old Theodore Hicks Jr. of Kalkaska, Mich.
