## Initial accident

During the course of filming the documentary, Lisa was driving a Montero [SUV](/source/SUV). There were nine passengers in the vehicle.[2] The van had killed a child only a few weeks prior to this accident.[3][4] Lisa thought that the spirit that was haunting her killed the child by mistake.[5]

## Lopes' death

The video of Lopes' fatal accident, taken from within the [Mitsubishi Montero Sport](/source/Mitsubishi_Montero_Sport) that rolled over into the grass, shows only events in the vehicle prior to the moment of impact. The coroner who performed her autopsy ruled her death an accident.[6][7]
