ALBANY (AP) -- Flags will be flown at half-staff on government buildings in New York on Friday to honor a state trooper who died in a car crash while on duty.

Trooper Amanda Anna died from severe head injuries after her patrol car overturned on a storm-slicked road Friday night north of Syracuse.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Tuesday ordered flags to be flown at half-staff Friday, the day of the 31-year-old trooper's funeral.

Anna was a six-year veteran of the state police and the mother of a 4-year-old son.
