MANASSAS, Va. — Police say a woman died Wednesday morning in Manassas after she lost control of her vehicle, leading the vehicle to travel through fields, crash into fences, and eventually overturn.
According to a statement from Prince William County Police Department, investigators responded around 8 a.m. to the 5300 block of Hoadly Road. Police say the woman was driving a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee north on a private gravel road on a property off Hoadly Road.
The woman — whom police identified as 35-year-old Emily Kathryn Fleming of Manassas — lost control of her Jeep when she accelerated suddenly and left the roadway, police said.
Investigators say, "The vehicle traveled through a field, striking multiple fences before striking a small culvert and overturning."
First responders came to the scene and flew Fleming to a nearby hospital where she died from her injuries. Fleming was the only person in the Jeep, police say.
