SCRUBGRASS TWP., Pa. (EYT) — State police say an area woman escaped injuries in a one-vehicle crash on Interstate 80 East in Scrubgrass Township late Friday night.

According to Clarion-based State Police, the accident happened around 11:52 p.m. on Friday, April 16, on I-80 East, near mile marker 37.7, in Scrubgrass Township, Venango County.

It came to a rest facing northwest of the northern shoulder of I-80. 

Courson was using a seat belt and was not injured.
