ANDERSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WVLT) -- A woman is dead after a crash in Anderson County Monday morning, the Tennessee Highway Patrol confirms.

It happened shortly after 8 a.m. on Norris Freeway.

Troopers say a Toyota Camry driven by a 17-year-old boy and carrying another teen, either 16 or 17 years old, collided with a Chrysler PT Cruiser driven by Mitzi L. Garrett, who is either 40 or 41. Troopers did not include exact birth dates on the crash report, and both Garrett and teen passenger in the Camry have birthdays in August.

Garrett was killed when the Camry crossed the center line and hit Garrett's PT Cruiser. Both teens, who troopers say are Anderson County High School students, were also injured, and all three were wearing a seat belt.

Because THP did not identify the teenagers, Volunteer TV has been unable to determine their medical condition.

Her name was Mitzi, not Nitzi. She was a precious woman with a beautiful spirit, incredible sense of humor and she loved her son more than life itself. Our loss here is definitely heaven's gain and so thankful that her faith in Jesus Christ is now sight. Mitzi,you will be greatly missed!!!
