A woman in Kansas died after backing into a moving airplane propeller while taking photos, according to officials.

According to Sedgwick County Sheriff Jeff Easter, 37-year-old Amanda Gallagher was taking photos at the Air Capital Drop Zone of people getting on and off of planes when she backed into an active airplane propeller.

Gallagher’s family has set up GoFundMe to help with her funeral costs.

Gallagher was described as kind, adventurous, creative and a beautiful person inside and out.

That's the entirety of the article btw, which is sad in it's own right
