A WOMAN FROM BROWN CITY IS RECOVERING FROM SERIOUS INJURIES AFTER HER VEHICLE WENT AIRBORNE IN A CRASH IN FLYNN TOWNSHIP TUESDAY AFTERNOON. SANILAC COUNTY AUTHORITIES SAY THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON PECK ROAD NEAR MAPLE VALLEY ROAD AT AROUND 1:00PM. ACCORDING TO DEPUTY KRAVITSKY, A CAR DRIVEN BY 54-YEAR-OLD SHERRY THEOBALD OF BROWN CITY WAS WESTBOUND ON PECK ROAD WHEN IT LEFT THE ROADWAY FOR ABOUT 300 YARDS BEFORE STRIKING AN EMBANKMENT. THAT SENT THE CAR AIRBORNE FOR ABOUT 35 YARDS. THE VEHICLE LANDED STRIKING ITS ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND BOUNCED BEFORE STRIKING A TREE. THE DRIVER WAS TRANSPORTED TO MARLETTE REGIONAL HOSPITAL AND LATER FLOWN TO ROYAL OAK BEAUMONT HOSPITAL FOR TREATMENT. THE WOMAN'S NAME AND CURRENT CONDITION HAS NOT BEEN RELEASED, BUT HER INJURIES ARE CONSIDERED LIFE-THREATENING INJURIES. SPEED APPEARS TO BE A FACTOR IN THE CRASH.
