The driver of a 2008 Jaguar was killed in a fiery crash at 5:20 p.m. Friday in Clarendon County.
Clarendon County Coroner Bucky Mock identified the victim as Beatrice Fulton Singletary, a 41-year-old woman from Olanta.
According to Lance Cpl. Matthew Southern of the South Carolina Highway Patrol, Singletary was traveling north on U.S. 301 when her Jaguar was struck on the left side by a 2018 Volkswagen traveling east on Salem Road.
Mock said her time of death was about 5:20 p.m.
According to Southern, the driver of the VW disregarded a stop sign at the intersection of Salem Road and U.S. 301 and struck the victim's car, forcing it to run off the right side of the road and causing it to strike a building and catch fire.
The wreck remains under investigation by the highway patrol. An autopsy is scheduled for Sunday,
