A car crashed into a pole on Roosevelt Rd near Canal St in Chicago?s South Loop, then flipped over. The female driver was transported in serious to critical condition after the crash to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, said Quention Curtis, a spokesman for the Chicago Fire Department.

The woman, who was in her 30s, was driving westbound on the 400 block of West Roosevelt at about 9:30 a.m. the morning of September 24, 2009, when her car was struck by a truck.

Witnesses said the impact caused the woman?s car to fly about 15 feet in the air and hit a metal utility pole and flip over.

News as to the woman?s condition later in the day was not available.
