A Cowgill woman suffered fatal injuries in a Ray County crash Tuesday morning.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the accident occurred on Highway 13, at East 172nd Street, as a vehicle driven by 22-year-old Caitlin K. Lake drove northbound.

Authorities say Lake crossed the center line and struck an on-coming southbound tractor driven by 68-year-old Hamilton resident William V. Englert.

Both vehicles overturned, and Lake ejected in the process.

Troopers say Lake received transport to Thurman Funeral Home.
