One person is dead from injuries in a single-vehicle crash on westbound I-64 a half-mile east of the I-81 interchange in Augusta County reported on Sunday night.

A 2005 Toyota 4-Runner was traveling west on I-64 at 8:39 p.m. when it ran off the left side of the road, overcorrected, ran off the left side of the road again and struck an embankment. The vehicle then overturned several times.

The driver, Gabrielle N. Woodbury, 21, of Saint Johns, Fla., was transported for treatment of serious injuries. She was wearing her seatbelt.

The passenger, Amber S. Rainsberger, 18, of Parker, Colo., died at the scene. She was not wearing a seatbelt and was partially ejected from the vehicle.
