How the East 400 Road Crash Unfolded
The crash happened near South 4060 Road and East 400 Road. Troopers said the first car was traveling west on East 400 Road and turned left onto North 4060 Road from a stop sign, heading south. Troopers said a second car, traveling north on South 4060 Road, struck it. The first car spun clockwise and stopped in North 4060 Road's southbound lane. The second car left the road to the left and stopped off the pavement.
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said Lajuan Weiss, 84, of Owasso, was riding in the first car and died in the crash. The patrol identified the driver of that car as Leland Weiss, 89, who was injured. The second car's driver and passenger were hurt as well.
What the Highway Patrol Investigation Involves
The Oklahoma Highway Patrol said the next of kin has been notified. The patrol described the crash as an ongoing investigation. Troopers have not announced any charges.
A full investigation into a serious crash often takes weeks, and sometimes months. Investigators usually wait for vehicle data and lab results before they finish their report.
