“This caused Cowan to lose control of the vehicle as it went into a broadside slide off the roadway on the right side,” said Sgt. Stephen Townsend, staff coordinator for the Wyoming Highway Patrol. “The vehicle then rolled one and a half times, going through the right-of-way fence and coming to rest in the barrow pit on its top.”
According to information provided by the Wyoming Highway Patrol, Cowan was not wearing her seat belt at the time of the accident.
