UPDATE: Name of woman killed in I-64 crash released

More information has been released in a deadly three-car crash Tuesday evening that claimed a woman's life on Interstate 64, including the name of the woman who died.

Misty M. Pauley, 38, of Milton, died at the scene, West Virginia State Police say.

Troopers say Pauley, who was driving a white Chevrolet Cavalier, was killed after her car was rear-ended by another car. A third car also was involved.

It happened around 6:15 p.m. Tuesday between the Hurricane and Teays Valley exits near a construction zone. It was near mile-marker 33 as drivers were merging into one lane.

Troopers say Pauley was unconscious and trapped in her car when crews arrived.

Another driver, a 27-year-old woman from Hurricane, suffered a broken leg in the crash.

Two occupants of the third car were not hurt. That vehicle was struck after Pauley's car was hit from the rear.

The accident remains under reconstruction and investigation, troopers say. Charges are possible.
