Police said Kate Magill, 40, of Canaan, New Hampshire, was driving a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek north on Lake Morey Road with a 12-year-old passenger.

The two vehicles collided, coming to rest in the roadway.
Both operators and the juvenile passenger were wearing seatbelts, police said. No injuries were reported.
