A Cherokee County man and a Barnsdall woman died Saturday in separate traffic accidents.

Dead are Pamela Peacock, 55, of Barnsdall and Troy Bohlander, 35, of Welling.

Peacock, 55, died after a motorcycle she was a passenger on crashed on Oklahoma 11, just more than a mile north of Oklahoma 20 in Tulsa County.

An Oklahoma Highway Patrol report states that she died at the scene of the crash from massive injuries.

The motorcycle, a 2011 Victory, was driven by Thomas Daniels Jr., 50, of Pawhuska, according to the report. Daniels was taken to Saint Francis Hospital with head, internal, external and limb injuries. The OHP report states Daniels had been stabilized at the hospital.

The report states the motorcycle was southbound on Oklahoma 11 when it failed to negotiate a left turn and departed the roadway to the right at 1:58 p.m. Saturday.

Daniels and Peacock were found approximately 100 feet from where Daniels laid the motorcycle down, the report states.

Neither Daniels nor Peacock was wearing a helmet, the report said.

Bohlander, 35, was pronounced dead at the scene by Cherokee Nation EMS after crashing his vehicle at 7:28 p.m. Saturday on Oklahoma 100, 1.2 miles east of Oklahoma 82 and just south of Tahlequah, according to a report from the OHP.

Bohlander was westbound on the highway and traveling at a high rate of speed when his vehicle failed to negotiate a curve, ran off the roadway to the left and struck a tree, OHP reported. He was ejected from the vehicle.

Emergency officials detected an odor of alcohol at the scene, the OHP reported. Bohlander was not wearing a seatbelt, the report said.
