GARNETT A Richmond woman was killed Tuesday afternoon following a one-vehicle accident north of Garnett.
The Anderson County Sheriffs Department reported Linda L. Sprague, 76, was traveling north on U.S. 59 when she lost control of her pickup, a 1995 Ford F-150, which entered the ditch and struck a culvert.
Sprague was taken to Anderson County Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
The Sheriffs Department reported in a press release that Sprague told emergency crews at the scene she lost control while trying to get away from a bug that was in her vehicle.
