Rollover Crash in Springs Sends One to Hospital

A driver lost control of her Jeep Grand Cherokee coming around a curve on Three Mile Harbor Road at Woodbine Drive in Springs Wednesday morning, causing her to crash into the woods, Springs Fire Chief Peter Grimes said. 

The sport utility vehicle rolled over onto its side at about 8:45 a.m., but the driver had only a minor injury.  An East Hampton ambulance transported her to Southampton Hospital. Chief Grimes said the Springs Fire Department was alread out on for an earlier call. A Springs engine responded, though no heavy rescue was required, as the woman got out of the S.U.V. on her own. 

The driver, whose name was not immediately available, was the only occupant of the vehicle and no other cars were involved, the chief said. The driver told fire officials she was heading down Three Mile Harbor Road toward East Hampton when she lost control around the curve.

No arrests were made, according to Town Police Capt. Chris Anderson.
