HELENA - Authorities say a 32-year-old woman is dead after crashing her car into a tree near Montana City southeast of Helena.

Shaun Gardner, Jefferson County's deputy coroner, says Kimberly Morse of Anaconda died at the scene Sunday night. She was wearing a seat belt and had to be extricated from her vehicle.

Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Cale Lang says Morse was traveling west on Secondary Highway 518 at about 8 p.m. Sunday when her car went off the road and struck a tree. No other vehicles were involved and road conditions were clear and dry.

Authorities have not yet determined whether speed or alcohol played a role.
