Details released by police indicate that the collision happened on a public road, and emergency services were called to the scene soon after.
Jess was taken to a nearby hospital, where medical staff worked to care for her injuries. Despite those efforts, she was later pronounced dead. Indonesian authorities have said that they are investigating the circumstances of the crash, including road conditions and any possible involvement of other vehicles.
