A woman died in a single-vehicle collision by the northeastern edge of Edmonton Wednesday night.

Police responded to the crash near Manning Drive and 18 Street around 8:30 p.m., where a vehicle could be seen lying upside down on the side of the road.

Investigators believe a 49-year-old woman was driving a Hyundai Accent southwest along 195 Avenue toward Manning Drive, when she lost control of the vehicle.

The woman, who was the only person in the vehicle, was declared dead at the scene by EMS.
