A Westmoreland County woman was killed Sunday after an early morning crash on an all-terrain vehicle.

Katelin Williams, 20, of Smithton was a passenger in an ATV that was driving through a wooded area of Grindstone, Fayette County, at about 2 a.m. Sunday when the driver lost control going up a steep hill and the vehicle flipped over, Washington County coroner Tim Warco said.

She was thrown from the ATV and transported to Monongahela Valley Hospital, where she was declared dead of blunt force trauma of the trunk, the coroner said.

The driver was not identified.

The cause of death was ruled accidental. Pennsylvania State Police in the Belle Vernon barracks were investigating.
