State police report that Meghan Mathys of Lowville was northbound on State route 12 at about 5:30 am when her sedan crossed the center line and sideswiped a car driven by Heather Seller of Lyons Falls.  Mathys's car was then hit on the passenger side by a truck driven by Benjamin Russell of Old Forge.  Troopers say Mrs. Mathys was pronounced dead at the scene.  Russell was taken to the hospital in Lowville for a minor injury, and Heather Seller was not hurt.  Investigators say weather does appear to be a contributing factor to the accident.
