Pennie Shoebridge, 54, of San Antonio, Texas, was pronounced dead at the scene about 7 p.m. on Interstate 35 near State Highway 51 about 15 miles west of Stillwater.
The patrol reports Shoebridge was traveling south on I-35 when the van she drove hit a cable barrier and rolled. She did not wear a seat belt and was partially ejected.
