CAJAH MOUNTAIN - A Granite Falls woman has died after being thrown from her sport utility vehicle Wednesday, authorities said.

Robin Gray Davis, 46, was traveling north on Connelly Springs Road at 10:45 a.m. when the back left side of her Toyota 4Runner was hit by a northbound Jeep trying to turn on to Cajah Mountain Road, said Trooper Keith Dills of the N.C. Highway Patrol.

Davis' car spun and skidded sideways before flipping, Dills said. Davis, who did not appear to be wearing a seat belt, was thrown from the car window or sunroof, he said.

The 2004 Jeep was driven by 59-year-old Annette Beam Dudley. Dudley was not injured in the crash, he said.

The Highway Patrol's investigation will be given to the District Attorney's Office, which will decide whether to file charges, Dills said.
