A female motorist died in the early hours of March 24 when the car she as driving rolled over and struck another car, according to Waltham Police.

Before the crash, the car had been driving east on Main Street but the driver lost control, veered into the westbound lane and struck another vehicle travelling west, according to police. Nobody else was injured in the incident.
