LEON COUNTY, Fla. (WTXL) -- Florida Highway Patrol report that a Tallahassee woman was killed in a crash on U.S. 90 east off of Still Creek Road on Thursday, June 8 at approximately 5:20 p.m.  

Officials says 52 year-old Rosemary Franklin was in the passenger's seat, when the driver of the car drifted into the grass shoulder on the highway while making a left turn.

Troopers say the driver over-corrected, and sent the car into westbound traffic.

A pickup truck hit the passenger's side of the car, causing it to roll over.

Franklin died at the scene.
