One person died and another was transported to Los Alamos Medical Center Saturday afternoon following a traffic accident at Anderson Overlook on N.M. 502 near Los Alamos.

Santa Fe Sheriff’s Office spokesman Juan Rios told the Los Alamos Reporter a semi commercial vehicle jack-knifed going down the hill. He said a small SUV hit a rear end tire of the semi and rolled onto its top. The driver of the SUV succumbed to injuries received.

The Main Hill road has been closed for several hours and will remain closed until accident reconstruction officials have completed their work. Various agencies are on the scene including Los Alamos Police Department, Rios said. He added that no further details of the crash will be made available until Monday.
