A woman died in a two-vehicle crash Monday afternoon on Highway 87 south of Klein.

The crash happened when two vehicles were passing on the south and northbound lanes at 3:40 p.m., according to Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Joe DeJong. 

The southbound vehicle crossed the center line and clipped the northbound vehicle.

The woman was a passenger in the northbound vehicle, DeJong said.

The road was snowy and icy, and police are investigating whether drugs or alcohol were factors, DeYong said.
