SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Police Department has identified a 75-year-old woman killed in a vehicle crash with a tree early Thursday morning.
According to police, Norma Jackson Baird, 75, was driving just after 4 a.m. in the 13500 block of Huebner Road when, for an unknown reason, she lost control of her vehicle and crashed into a tree.
Police said Baird was traveling eastbound when she failed to navigate a curve, drifted across two lanes and jumped the curb.

Baird was taken to University Hospital by EMS, where she later was pronounced dead.
No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
