Western Pennsylvania Woman Killed in Wrong-Way Crash on Bridge

A 25-year-old Pittsburgh woman was killed after crashing her car while driving the wrong way on a city bridge.

The Allegheny County medical examiner's office says the dead woman is Jequayla Turner.

Police say she was driving the wrong way on the Birmingham Bridge when her car hit the concrete wall of an unfinished bridge ramp about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday.

Police say she was pronounced dead about an hour later at UPMC Mercy hospital.

Police were continuing to investigate the crash, but didn't immediately say why they believed the woman was driving in the wrong direction.
