Around 6:05 p.m., officers responded to a “major injury traffic collision” at Silver Creek Valley Rd. and Beaumont Canyon Dr., police said.
A gray 1998 Toyota, driven by a woman, was traveling northbound Silver Creek Valley Rd., approaching the intersection of Beaumont Canyon Dr.
A 2004 silver Mercedes Benz, driven by a man, turned from southbound Silver Creek Valley Rd. onto eastbound Beaumont Canyon Dr. and the two cars collided.
The Toyota rolled over, throwing the woman from her car.
