Woman dead after two-vehicle crash in Bullhead City

One person was killed and two others were injured in a two vehicle collision in Bullhead City Sunday. Bullhead City police said the 8:00 a.m. crash occurred at the intersection of Meadows Drive and Highway 95.

Acting police department Spokeswoman Carina Spotts said Betty Jean Grandon, 74, apparently ran a red light and crashed her 2003 Toyota Prius into a 2011 Jeep Wrangler that was turning left from the highway onto Meadows. Grandon’s vehicle crashed into a fence and she was pronounced dead following transport to Western Arizona Regional Medical Center (WARMC), according to Spotts.

The driver of the Wrangler, Maria Middlebrook, 63, and passenger Janet Rice, 79, were hospitalized at WARMC. Spotts said there was no evidence of driver impairment and that the accident investigation continutes.
