Okmulgee, OK (April 1, 2025) - On Saturday, March 29, a woman was killed while riding a utility task vehicle in the Okmulgee area. The deadly crash took place on Lincoln Road east of 150 Road late that night at around 7:10 p.m. The victim was riding on the UTV when it was involved in a crash.
The circumstances leading to the accident have not yet been determined. Emergency crews were quickly dispatched to provide the necessary aid to the involved parties. The victim, later identified as 52-year-old Kristina Durrence of Okmulgee, suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead. Another rider of the vehicle was not harmed in the crash. It is still unknown who was operating the vehicle at the time of the incident. No further information on the accident is currently available. An ongoing investigation into the cause of the crash is being managed by local law enforcement officials, and more information will be provided as it continues.
We would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family of the deceased victim at this time.
It's fun for a lot of people in Oklahoma to ride a UTV for fun and relaxation. It is too bad that these vehicles can go very fast and do not offer much safety for the person riding them. Young adults and children are most likely to die in UTV crashes. There are more than 1,500 deaths and more than 100,000 injuries every year that are bad enough that they need medical care. Too often, deadly UTV accidents happen because the driver is drunk or not wearing a helmet.
