A 55-year-old Craig woman was killed early Wednesday on a mountainous stretch of U.S. 40 when a boulder smashed through the roof of the vehicle she was riding in.
The incident happened about 7:15 a.m., 5 miles east of Hayden, said Cpl. Eric Wynn, a Colorado State Patrol spokesman.
Wynn said a single rock, about the size of a basketball, struck the roof of an eastbound 2004 Buick, killing passenger Karen Lynn Evanoff. The boulder hit the car where the front windshield meets the roofline, Wynn said.
County Coroner Rob Ryg said Evanoff died instantly. The driver was not injured.
