A Berrien County resident has been hospitalized after becoming trapped in her vehicle Thursday evening.
According to the Cass County Sheriff’s Department, 25-year-old Mallory Brown, of Stevensville, was transported by ambulance to Corewell Health Niles Hospital after a crash on M-60, south of Yankee Street in Howard Township. Authorities said while traveling eastbound, Brown swerved to miss a stopped vehicle and ran off the roadway. Brown’s vehicle continued down the hill, crashed through a fence and rolled until it came to rest on its side in a field.
Brown was initially trapped inside of her vehicle until she was removed by Emergency Medical Personnel, authorities said.
Brown’s injuries were non-life threatening. Seatbelts were worn, but police said speed appears to be a factor in the crash. Alcohol and Drugs are not considered a factor. Assisting at the scene was Howard Township Fire Department, and SMACS Ambulance.
