The Patrol says Yeraldin Tovar Payano was headed east on U.S. Highway 14/16/20, when her father, 39-year-old Cesar Payano of Greybull, told her she needed to put her seat belt on.

Yeraldin and the left rear passenger, 53-year-old Rachel Harwood of Greybull, were thrown from the pickup. Harwood, who wasn’t wearing her seat belt, died at the scene.
Yeraldin, her father and a 17-year-old female passenger were taken to South Big Horn County Hospital in Basin.
