Rollover on Peach Road claims life of La Grande woman

Written by Observer staff reports September 14, 2009 03:19 pm

A motor vehicle crash on Peach Road near Booth Lane in rural La Grande claimed the life of a La Grande woman Friday.

Sugar M. Brownson, 40, died after she lost control of her vehicle and rolled it, Union County Sheriff Boyd Rasmussen said this morning. The crash happened about 7:40 p.m. Brownson was the vehicle’s lone occupant.

The crash is still under investigation, but Rasmussen said speed and alcohol likely were involved.

Medical crews from La Grande Rural Fire and the City of La Grande responded to the scene, along with the Union County Sheriff’s Office and the Oregon State Police.
