Rescuers free trapped woman

A WOMAN who was trapped in her car after a single-vehicle crash in Tooradin was taken to The Alfred hospital with serious injuries.
The 48-year-old from Blossom Park was driving her Ford sedan on the South Gippsland Highway about midnight on Monday when she hit a power pole in the town centre.
She was trapped in the car for more than half an hour before emergency services removed its roof to free her. An ambulance took her to The Alfred.
