A 23-year-old Manitowoc woman was transported to Aurora Medical Center shortly after 8 p.m. Monday when she lost control of her vehicle, which rolled over several times before landing in the front yard of a residence.

Two Rivers Police Department Lt. Shawn Engleman said officers were called to the 3600 block of Memorial Drive after receiving a report of a northbound vehicle swerving in and out of traffic at high speed.

Witnesses said the vehicle hit the median and went airborne, crossing the southbound lane and then rolling four times before landing in the front yard of a residence.

The woman was ejected and landed on the garage roof of the residence, according to Engleman.

The driver then tried to walk away from the scene.

Two Rivers Fire Department paramedics transported her to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The accident is still under investigation.

Alcohol was a factor in the accident, Engleman said.
