WESTON, Neb. (AP) — Sheriff's officials in eastern Nebraska say a woman has died in a rollover crash near the village of Weston.

The Saunders County Sheriff's Office says in a news release that the crash happened Sunday afternoon on a county road northwest of Weston.

Deputies and local fire and rescue workers were called around 4:20 p.m. for a report of a rollover crash and found a sport utility vehicle at the scene with the driver, identified as Katie Weakly, 29, of Prague, pinned inside.
