FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. - A 72-year-old woman has died in a crash involving a speeding driver at a Forsyth County intersection, officials say.

The driver of the Toyota was identified as 72-year-old Julie Waters Lamb of Dawsonville. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Deputies are investigating the crash at this time.

There is no word on whether the Ford's driver will face charges.
