It is reported that about 2:05 pm, the child and her father, along with a female companion, were travelling in the westbound lane when the driver lost control of the vehicle due to a tyre blowout, and it went off the road and crashed in the cow pasture.

The man and the child were reportedly flung from the vehicle.
