A Rapid City woman has died after a two vehicle crash six miles west of Rapid City.

The South Dakota Highway Patrol said in a release that a 1996 Toyota Corolla entered the intersection on US 16 from Busted Five Court when a westbound 2019 GMC Sierra on US 16 collided with the Corolla. The Corolla spun onto the north shoulder, ejecting the passenger. 

Both the driver and passenger of the Toyota Corolla were transported to Monument Health Hospital in Rapid City where the 76 year old female passenger later died from her injuries. Neither were wearing their seatbelts. The driver of the GMC sustained minor injuries.

The names of those involved have not been released pending family notification. The South Dakota Highway Patrol is continuing to investigate the crash.
