SAPULPA, Okla. - A Missouri woman was killed on a Tulsa-area turnpike late Sunday night.
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says the accident happened at 11 p.m. where the Creek and Turner turnpikes meet in Sapulpa.
Troopers say 45-year-old Roseann Sparks, of Goodman, Mo., was headed west on the Creek Turnpike, approaching the Turner, when her pickup went off the road and rolled several times.
The truck landed upside down.
Troopers say Sparks, who was not wearing a seatbelt, died at the scene.
