Karen Kay Green, 56, of Waynesboro, died overnight at UVa. Medical Center, according to a news release from the Waynesboro Police Department.

A 13-year-old passenger in Green’s vehicle was taken to Augusta Health after the 9:40 p.m. Wednesday accident. The male was treated and released. The driver and lone occupant of the First Aid Crew vehicle, a 2005 Ford Explorer, was also transported to Augusta Health and released.
