A woman is dead after a car crash in the RM of Touchwood on Wednesday afternoon, just outside of Punnichy.

Emergency crews responded to a call reporting a single vehicle accident on a gravel road.

Crews arrived to see the car already submerged in a slough. RCMP members then located the lone occupant of the vehicle, who was pronounced dead at the scene.

Further investigation is being conducted by RCMP detachments in Punnichy, Yorkton, and Fort Qu'Appelle.
