A woman suffered fatal injuries in a single-vehicle crash in southern Minnesota, officials said Thursday.
The wreck occurred Tuesday just south of St. Charles on eastbound Interstate 90, about a mile east of Hwy. 74, the State Patrol said.
The driver, 40-year-old Sean R. Payne of Chicago, lost control shortly before 6:30 p.m., and the SUV rolled several times, the patrol said.
The passenger who died was identified as Payne's wife, 51-year-old Anastasia Payne, according to the patrol. Sean Payne was hospitalized with critical injuries.
