Woman Critical After Route 51 Crash

JEFFERSON HILLS (KDKA) ― A woman is in critical condition after a rollover accident overnight in Jefferson Hills.

The accident happened along Route 51 northbound near Elliot Road around midnight.

According to authorities, the woman was apparently speeding when she crossed the center line and her vehicle went over an embankment. The vehicle slammed into a tree and overturned.

Police say the woman became trapped after the vehicle landed on its roof. 

Rescuers had a difficult time getting to the woman.

She was taken to Jefferson Regional Medical Center and later flown to a Pittsburgh area hospital.

At this point, accident investigators are still trying to determine why the woman lost control of her vehicle.
