A two-car accident on the south loop of the Creek Turnpike extension has killed one person.

Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers say a tan Dodge sedan exited highway 169 to head eastbound on the Creek Turnpike. That's when the driver made an abrupt U-turn and was hit by an oncoming car. The tan sedan spun out of control and plunged down an embankment, killing the driver.

The driver of the other car suffered minor injuries. No names have been released.
