A woman was killed in an early morning crash in North Bellmore.
Police say the crash happened on the Southern State Parkway at Exit 25 for Newbridge Road around 12:30 a.m. Sunday.
Authorities say Stephanie Francois, 28, of Central Islip, was apparently traveling at a high rate of speed when she lost control of her car.
The vehicle overturned and Francois died at the scene.
The victim's father, Fritz Francois, says the family is devastated. "I talked to her last night at 7 o'clock," he said. "If somebody told me it was going to be the last time that Stephanie and I talked, I would never believe it."
