A Coeburn woman died Friday when her vehicle crashed in the Banner community.

According to Virginia State Police, Hazel Mullins, 80, was traveling west on U.S. 58A in a 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt shortly before 1 p.m. The vehicle ran off the left side of the road. Mullins over-corrected, causing the car to cross back over the travel lanes, run off the right side, go over a guardrail, overturn several times and strike a tree.

Mullins died at the scene.

The crash remains under investigation.
