A North Carolina woman plunged to her death after passing by closed road signs, bypassing concrete barriers and driving off an embankment.

Emergency services responded to a call reporting that a car had been driven off the road and down an embankment in Lake Junaluska around 8 p.m. on Saturday.

Firefighters arrived to assist with a rescue operation, according to a Facebook update from the department. They used a rope to repel down the embankment and found a vehicle on its side with a woman inside.

She was rescued and rushed to a nearby hospital where she died from her injuries the next day, per WYFF 4.
