A woman from Polo was killed when she was thrown from an overturning vehicle yesterday afternoon in Caldwell County.
The highway patrol listed the victim as 36-year-old Misty Kapitza of Polo.
The patrol reports a pickup she was driving was northbound on Highway 13, traveled off the west side of the road and struck a culvert. The pickup then went airborne, overturned, and ejected the driver.
The truck came to rest on its wheels but was demolished in the 3:30 Monday afternoon accident two miles north of Polo.
The report shows the driver was not using a seat belt.
