STOCKHOLM – A 75-year-old Potsdam woman has died from injuries sustained in a vehicle accident in Stockholm Sunday evening.

Warnetta Gowing was taken to Canton-Potsdam Hospital by Tri-Town Rescue. She was pronounced dead there after succumbing to her injuries.

State police said Gowing was traveling northeast on U.S. 11 at about 6:30 p.m. when the vehicle went off the shoulder of road and traveled 260 feet before hitting a culvert, then traveled another 90 feet before it stopped in a ditch.

Troopers say the cause of the accident is still under investigation.

An autopsy is scheduled for today.
