A Central Iowa woman died early this (Wednesday) morning during a single-vehicle crash on Interstate 80 in Adair County. The Iowa State Patrol reports 28-year old Sheana Marie Story, of Des Moines, who was not wearing a seat belt, died in the crash that happened at around 6-a.m. on I-80 westbound, about a mile west of the Greenfield Exit.

Authorities say the 2006 Ford Fusion she was driving, drifted off the road and hit a cable barrier on the shoulder and continued into the ditch, rolling end-over-end three or four times before coming to rest facing southwest on its wheels. Story was ejected from her car as it rolled, and came to rest 12 feet away from the vehicle.

The Adair County Medical Examiner declared her deceased at the scene. The accident remains under investigation.
