One killed, one hurt when ATV overturns in ditch

One rider was killed and a second injured Saturday night when an all-terrain vehicle overturned and ended up in a ditch.

It happened about 7:40 p.m. on Arkansas 58 in Poughkeepsie.

Authorities say 28-year-old Sara Michelle Croom was driving the Polaris Razor ATV west when the vehicle "lost control and overturned." It came to a rest in the westbound ditch, according to an Arkansas State Police report.

Croom, of Cave City, died from unspecified injuries. Another rider, 34-year-old Billy Jewel Ray Croom, also of Cave City, was taken to White River Medical Center in Batesville. His condition wasn't clear.

Two other passengers on the ATV were uninjured, police said.
