A Peachtree
City woman was killed after she lost control of her vehicle on Ga. Highway
74 in Tyrone Wednesday afternoon.
Mollie Newton,
21, was traveling southbound between Jenkins Road and Sandy Creek Road
when her car suddenly entered the grassy median, said Tyrone Police Chief
Roger Spencer. Newton swerved the opposite direction and ran off the other
side of the road where it struck a culvert and became airborne, the chief
said.
There are no
indications Newton was wearing her seat belt at the time, Spencer said.
Witnesses told
police that she was driving normally until her 1998 Honda Civic entered
the median, Spencer added.
Newton was
a senior at Georgia Tech, where she was scheduled to graduate this month,
Spencer said.
