A 61-year-old North Platte woman has died following an accident south of North Platte.

At around 8:33 p.m., on Wednesday, deputies with Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office responded to the report of an injury accident at the intersection of North Lake Road and US Highway 83.

Deputies and troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol arrived and found that two vehicles were involved in the crash, a 2003 Peterbilt semi, pulling an empty trailer, and a 2011 Hyundai Sonata.

According to deputies, the driver of the Hyundai, Celestina “Tina” Mohr, was turning north onto Highway 83, and didn’t see the southbound semi in the passing lane.

Deputies say the semi struck Mohr’s vehicle on the driver’s side.

Mohr, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was transported to Great Plains Health, where she died shortly after arrival.

Authorities say it does not appear that drugs or alcohol were a factor in the crash.

The driver of the semi was not injured.

The investigation into the accident is ongoing.
