According to CSPD, officers originally responded around 9 p.m. to a two-car crash at the intersection of Briargate Parkway and Chapel Hills Drive. Both drivers were taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries, CSPD said.

The investigation revealed that a car was heading eastbound on Briargate Parkway and approaching Chapel Hills Drive when a second car, heading westbound, turned left onto Chapel Hills, colliding with the oncoming car.

The driver of the second car, identified as 53-year-old Maroufeh Kazemi, was taken to the hospital where she was declared dead.
