WILLOWS, Calif. - A Wednesday morning rollover of a 2008 Chevy Suburban killed a 24-year-old Oregon woman and seriously injured three others. According to the Chico Enterprise-Record the rollover occured on Interstate 5 north of County Road 57. The driver apparently failed to negotiate a curve, drifted off the road, then overcorrected back onto the road. After re-entering the road, the Suburban apparently flipped and rolled. The young woman that was killed was ejected. Officers speculate that she and another occupant that was ejected, were reclined in the back and not wearing restraints.

The other occupants were all from Oregon and suffered serious injuries. Initially, they were taken to Enloe Hospital in Chico. One or more may have been subsequently transferred to U.C. Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. Their current status is unknown.

Alcohol does not appear to have been a factor. The cause of the accident is still under investigation.

Our sincerest condolences go to the family of the young woman that was killed.
