Two people died in two crashes on Arkansas roads Wednesday, according to preliminary reports from the Arkansas State Police.
Mary Ann Frederick, 84, of Paris, died about 11:52 a.m. while attempting to cross Arkansas 22 west of Subiaco from north to south, according to a report. A 2019 Dodge Ram 1500 traveling east struck and killed Frederick when she walked into the eastbound traffic lane, the report says.
The trooper investigating the death reported that the weather was cloudy and the road was dry at the time.
An unidentified male driver died in a crash at 1:59 a.m. on Main Street in Grady, according to a report, which lists the driver only as John Doe.
The driver was headed north in a 2015 BMW 320 when he failed to navigate a left turn, leaving the roadway to the right, the report says.
The driver overcorrected, causing the vehicle to reenter and exit the roadway to the left, the report says. After leaving the roadway, the car struck a utility pole and continued traveling until it struck a building.
The trooper investigating the crash reported that the weather was clear and the road was dry.
