Accident Kills Charleston Woman...Injures Two Others
WEST VIRGINIA....
A Charleston woman was killed and her daughter and granddaughter injured after being ejected from a vehicle in a rollover accident on Interstate 79 in Kanawha County about 6:00 A.M. Monday morning. Vera Mae McMillan, 63, was killed after losing control of her vehicle between Mink Shoals and Big Chimney. Police say the vehicle slid off the right side of the road, striking an embankment, causing it to roll several times. McMillan was pronounced dead on the scene. Sherry Lynn Lottig, 38, and Amanda Lottig, 15, were taken to Charleston Area Medical Center. Deputies say the surface of the road was dry at the time of the accident, and ice was likely not a factor.
