CHANDLER, Ariz. — A 69-year-old woman was killed in a crash Thursday morning after a man allegedly ran a red light near Willis and Alma School roads.
Officers with the Chandler Police Department responded at 10 a.m. to the two-vehicle crash where they determined the man in the truck was driving northbound on Alma School, ran the red light and collided with a sedan that was traveling eastbound through the intersection.
The passenger of the sedan was transported to the hospital with life-threatening injuries but did not survive, police said. She has been identified as 69-year-old Lila Barton of Sun Lakes.
The driver of the truck sustained minor injuries, police said.
