TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - Authorities say a Kansas woman was killed when her sport utility vehicle overturned onto its top in a creek.

The Kansas Highway Patrol identified the victim as 76-year-old Susan Lenoir, of Topeka.

The patrol says she went off the side of U.S. 75 on Tuesday about a half mile (0.80 kilometers) south of Interstate 35 in Topeka. Her SUV then struck a road sign before going into Soldier Creek, where it flipped upside down and was submerged in water.
