Batesburg Woman Dies After Crash

The woman died Wednesday from injuries sustained in a crash near Batesburg-Leesville Tuesday.

 

A 23-year-old woman died Wednesday after she was injured in a crash Tuesday south of Batesburg-Leesville, according to the S.C. Highway Patrol.

The woman was riding in a 1999 Ford pickup with a 19-year-old man when the truck ran off the right side of Brodie Road and hit a tree Tuesday, said Lance Cpl. Brent Kelly. They were about 0.7 miles from Batesburg-Leesville.

They weren't wearing seatbelts, Kelly said. They were transported to the hospital where the woman died Wednesday. 

The Lexington County Coroner's Office hasn't released the identity of the woman.

Typo! Brodie Rd. may be 4.7 miles from BL but certainly not 47!

Thanks Mark! It was actually supposed to be 0.7. I changed it.
