WASHINGTON —
A local woman was saved from a burning van Thursday afternoon in rural Daviess County.
According to the accident report, Ashley N. Allison, 19, 667W 300S, was driving a 2002 Chrysler Town and Country east on CR 100S near CR 1100E when she swerved to miss an animal in the road, overcorrected, and went off the road. The van then flipped over, causing her to eject from the van. The van then caught fire.
A passerby, Amos Graber, 702S 1100E, drove by and saw the wreckage from the accident and found Allison semiconcious near the van. She was moved away from the van and Graber waited until emergency personnel arrived.
Allison was taken to Daviess Community Hospital for observation. Damage from the accident was estimated between $2,500 and $5,000.
