A woman was killed in a two-vehicle crash after her car rolled multiple times on the Adirondack Northway. 

The collision occurred in Saratoga County around 4:50 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 1, on the Northway north of the Exit 14 off-ramp in Saratoga Springs.

According to New York State Police Trooper Stephanie O'Neil, the crash caused one of the vehicles to overturn and killed the driver, identified as Makenzie T. Minkler, age 25, of Rensselaer.

Minkler was transported for severe injuries but died shortly after at Saratoga Hospital, O'Neil said

The cause of the crash is under investigation. 

The northbound Exit 14 off-ramp and the right lane of the Northway northbound were closed for approximately four hours for the investigation and collision reconstruction.

A secondary three-car crash was also reported due to vehicles reacting to the initial crash, which caused further traffic delays. 

No significant injuries were reported as a result of the secondary crash.
