By Steve Winslow Anchor/Reporter

Georgia State Patrol (GSP) continues to investigate a fatal crash from White County late Thursday along State Route 115.

GSP Captain Burns says a Jeep Grand Cherokee hydroplaned during heavy rainfall along SR 115 at Ed Lewis Road in Cleveland Thursday afternoon, after 5:45 p.m.  Captain Burns says the Jeep began to rotate, before being struck by a Porsche Macan.  The crash forced the Porsche to travel back into a Ram 1500 pickup truck on SR 115.

Captain Burns says the driver of the Jeep was transported to a nearby hospital where she later died.

According to WRWH in Cleveland, White County Coroner Rick Barrett has identified the victim as 34-year old Bailey Gabler of Cleveland.

No further details from the wreck have been released by GSP as of last report.
