FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- An 81-year-old woman died Saturday afternoon in a fatal crash just outside of Exeter.

The California Highway Patrol said the crash happened around 2:30 p.m. on Marinette Avenue and State Route 65. A man pulling a trailer for the Exeter High School band was driving toward a band competition in Lemoore.

He was traveling on the highway when authorities said the woman pulled out in front of him. She was transported to the hospital but died.

It's unclear who was at fault but the CHP said the woman who died did not have the right of way.
