Deputies report 40-year-old Angela Payne of Jonesville was able to avoid a car stopped for the bus but ran off the road and into a ditch. The vehicle then overturned.
Payne was wearing her seat belt and was taken by the Reading Emergency Unit to Hillsdale Hospital.
The second crash took place at about 8:10 p.m. on Tuesday evening when according to the Sheriff’s Department, 30-year-old Brittany Walker of Hillsdale was traveling west on Lilac Road east of South Edon Road when she swerved to miss a deer.
