Woman injured in Schaumburg rollover crash

A woman suffered minor injuries Saturday afternoon in a rollover crash on the Route 53 ramp onto the Jane Addams Tollway in Schaumburg, fire officials said.

The driver lost control of the late model SUV when she tried to negotiate a turn to get onto east I-90 about 3:30 p.m., Schaumburg Fire Capt. Marty Sand said.

The SUV skidded into a grassy area, rolled over and came to rest upright, Sand said.

Paramedics found the woman, who was able to walk, outside the vehicle. She was taken to Northwest Community Hospital in Arlington Heights for treatment.

Speed may have played a factor in the crash, according to Illinois State Police. It was not immediately clear whether the driver will face any traffic citations.
