STROUD, Okla. (KFOR) -- A deadly wreck in Oklahoma involved a naked woman and a car that was fully engulfed in flames.
Oklahoma Highway Patrol arrested one woman for allegedly ramming and killing a 21-year-old, causing her to spin out of control off the Turner Turnpike near Stroud.
Oklahoma Highway Patrol confirmed a 21-year-old Edmond woman named Mercedes Tyler died at the scene.
Authorities say Candice Conley was going 100 miles an hour on the turnpike when she rammed into the back of Tyler's SUV, causing it to flip several times. The force of the impact catapulted the 21-year-old from her car. Tyler was pronounced dead before any help could arrive.
Troopers say Conley kept going, driving 5 more miles before noticing her own car was on fire. Conley swerved off the road herself when her car became fully engulfed, causing a large grass fire on the side of the highway.
Conley allegedly jumped out of the car, stripped off her clothes and ran a half-mile before Lincoln County deputies caught up to her.
The 26-year-old was arrested for first-degree manslaughter and sits in the Lincoln County Jail.
