Woman dies in Center Township crash

A woman died in a one-car crash this morning on Sunset Drive in Center Township, state police said.

Authorities have not notified next of kin and did not release her name.

A patrol supervisor said the victim is "local."

Police said they don't know when the crash happened and acknowledged the wrecked car was not discovered until hours after the wreck.

It appeared the car was northbound when it went off the east side of the road near Shanahan Road, struck a "For Sale" in a front yard before hitting and shearing off a utility pole.

The car ended in the yard of a neighboring home.

Babette Stewart, who owns the home where the car first went off the road, awoke about 5:45 a.m. and discovered the wreckage, and called 911.
