A 56-year-old woman was killed Tuesday in a three-vehicle wreck in southwest Arkansas, Arkansas State Police said.

The crash happened around 5:45 p.m. as Jacque Tollett of Mineral Springs was traveling north on U.S. 67 in Miller County, according to a preliminary report.

Tollett's 2007 Ford Ranger slowed to make a left turn, at which point a 2002 Ford Explorer traveling behind her struck her pickup, state police reported.
