Casa Blanca, AZ : Cenda Ramos, 25, killed in a multi-vehicle collision on Interstate 10 north of Casa Grande on Thursday night, October 27, 2016

A Casa Grande woman was killed Thursday night in a multi-vehicle collision on Interstate 10 north of Casa Grande, according to authorities.

Cenda Ramos, 25, was pronounced dead at the scene of the accident that occurred at around 6:45 p.m.. She was a graduate of the Casa Grande Union High School and is survived by her husband Carlos.

The Arizona Department of Public Safety reports the collision was caused by a box spring that had fallen off a pickup truck traveling in the freeway’s eastbound lane near milepost 179.

Ramos was driving in a Toyota SUV behind the pickup truck. She reportedly swerved to avoid hitting the box spring and drove into the freeway’s westbound lanes. The SUV then collided head-on with an oncoming van and rolled over on its side.

The driver of the van, a 55-year-old Gilbert woman, was transported to Chandler Regional Medical Center for treatment of injuries. No other passengers or drivers were reported injured.

All drivers were reportedly wearing safety restraints at the time of the accident, according to DPS.

The freeway’s westbound lane was closed for nearly three hours Thursday night following the accident.
