One person has died following a two vehicle accident at a dangerous intersection inside the Guthrie city limits.
Just before 7 p.m. on Friday, Guthrie police and fire crews rushed to State Highway 33 and Academy Road for an accident with injuries.
Firefighters were forced to cut the vehicle to reach a female victim inside.
The highway was shut down for several minutes as a medical helicopter landed on the roadway. The victim was transported to a Oklahoma City hospital, but died a short time later.
