A Dayton woman was seriously injured early Saturday after crashing a car into a pole on West Hillcrest and Salem avenues in Dayton.
The 51-year-old woman was driving a 2000 Honda Civic around 3:45 a.m. east on West Hillcrest Avenue when she apparently lost control at the Salem Avenue intersection and drove off the left side of the road, striking a pole, according to a Dayton Police Department crash report.
The car hit the pole head-on and had disabling damage. The driver, who was taken to Miami Valley Hospital, was the car’s only occupant.
The woman was wearing a seat belt, according to the crash report. She was listed as a patient at Miami Valley Hospital as of Monday morning but her condition was not available.
