A woman has died in a rollover crash near Mountain Home just south of the Air Force base. The driver of a 2004 Saturn Ion was traveling northbound on Highway 67, between Grandview and the Mountain Home Air Force Base around 3:20 am.

The woman failed to negotiate a left-hand curve, driving off the right shoulder of the roadway. The vehicle struck a reflector post, causing it to spin. The vehicle rolled numerous times, and the driver was tossed from the car.

The driver of the Saturn, Kayley Ann Stachowski, 21, of Mountain Home, suffered significant injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police are still investigating, however preliminary indicators are that the driver was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.
