Claudette Watkins, 67, was driving east on 76th Street and died on impact, according to a sheriff’s office bulletin. The property owner heard the crash around 5:30 p.m. and called 911 after finding the SUV in a field, Willis said.
When firefighters arrived at 8605 N.E. 76th St., they found Watkins dead in the vehicle with no passengers.
The cause of the crash is unknown.
