A woman died from multiple injuries sustained in an automobile accident on the Watterson Expressway in Louisville, Kentucky on Friday. Two semi tractor-trailers were also involved in the fatal crash. According to witnesses, she may have lost control of her vehicle and then was clipped by a tractor-trailer and subsequently hit by another when her vehicle ended up in its path.

Witnesses told police that Jenkins appeared to lose control of her vehicle and swerve to one side, where she was clipped by a tractor-trailer.

The impact sent her into the path of a second tractor-trailer, which crashed into her car and careened off the roadway, knocking down a concrete sound barrier on the side of the expressway, Russell said yesterday.

Jenkins was taken to University Hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 3:55 p.m., Taylor said.

The driver of the second tractor-trailer was taken to University with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening.
