(ST. CLAIR COUNTY) – Several private property crashes in St. Clair County’s East China Township Wednesday night are believed to have been caused by a medical incident by the driver of the car causing the crashes.
St. Clair County Sheriff Deputies responded to Rivers Edge Mobile Home Park on Hathaway Street in East China Township around 6:30 p.m. and found a vehicle driven by a 60-year old East China Township woman had crashed into three parked vehicles in the park.
The vehicle then travelled across South Riverside Avenue, went through a fence, struck a house and two more parked vehicles.
Members of St. Clair Fire and Rescue and Tri-Hospital EMS rendered aid to the woman at the scene of the crashes.
She was transported to Ascension River District Hospital in East China, where she was pronounced dead.
Investigators believe the woman died as the result of a medical incident and not from the vehicle crashes that remain under investigation.
