PHOENIX — Phoenix police are investigating a fatal collision that left a 46-year-old woman dead near 40th Street and Cactus Road Friday. 

Police said officers were called to the area and learned that an SUV with five people inside was traveling eastbound on Cactus when it struck a sedan that was attempting to turn southbound onto 40th Street. 

The force of the collision caused the SUV to crash into a signal light pole nearby, officials said.

Authorities said all five occupants of the SUV were transported to the hospital where one of its passengers, identified as Tiffini Cunningham, died from her injuries.

Impairment is not believed to be a factor in this collision, according to police.

No further information has been released at this time.
