A 28-year-old woman was killed Wednesday morning when the car she was driving ran off the road and struck a tree near the intersection of Houston Road and Ga. 247, authorities said.
The victim, Kimberly Fields, of Macon, was at the wheel of a 2009 Chevrolet Impala and riding alone about 7 a.m. when the car veered off the road and crashed into a tree, Bibb County Coroner Leon Jones said.
Fields was the mother of 5-month-old twins, Jones said.
The coroner said that on impact with a tree, the car’s engine was knocked some 100 feet from the vehicle.
