PHOENIX — A 49-year-old woman is dead after a crash in north Phoenix on Thursday afternoon, authorities said.

The Phoenix Police Department identified the woman who died as Alanna Duval Cziperle.

According to police, officers responded to the area of Aviano Way and Deer Valley Drive for reports of a collision resulting in injuries around 2:15 p.m. and found Duval Cziperle suffering from serious injuries.
