VAN CRASHES INTO POWER POLE IN YUCCA VALLEY SATURDAY MORNING

A woman was injured early Saturday morning when a van crashed into a power pole in Yucca Valley. According to County Fire Battalion Chief Scott Tuttle, the large passenger van was westbound on Onaga Trail, just west of Sage Avenue about 4 a.m., when, for unknown reasons, the van left its lane and crashed into the pole, shearing it off. The male driver was out of the van and walking around when rescue personnel arrived. His female passenger, however, was trapped inside the van. It took firefighters about 15 minutes to extricate her using the Jaws of Life. She was taken to Desert Hospital in Palm Springs with moderate injuries. Southern California Edison was called to repair the pole.
