The wreck occurred at about 3:13 a.m. Williams was the front seat passenger in an eastbound Hyundai Accent driven by Antiqua Walker, 31, of Lithonia, Georgia. Williams and Walker reportedly pulled into the left turn lane, then exited the vehicle to assess the cause of a check-engine notification.

A passenger in the Camero immediately placed Williams in the car, driving her to Candler Hospital, where she succumbed to her injuries.
