Accident pins woman under vehicle
A Friday morning trip to drop kids off at school nearly turned near tragic Friday when an area couple was involved in a one-vehicle accident on FM 1121 just east of Hwy 377.
Christina Garcia was airlifted from the scene after being pinned under the vehicle following the crash.
According to Trooper John Mooday with the Texas Department of Public Safety, the accident happened when the 2000 Dodge Durango, being driven by Jake Vanspyker, turned on its side after he lost control of the vehicle.
During the crash, the passenger door came open and Garcia's leg was caught in the door when the vehicle came to rest on its side.
A considerable effort was made to carefully lift the car and free Garcia who was flown by helicopter to Shannon Medical Center in San Angelo.
The extent of her injuries is not yet known. Vanderspyke was treated and released at the scene.
