A woman escaped serious injury Wednesday morning in a crash along West Patterson Street.

The crash occurred at 8:30 a.m. near just east of the intersection with Dock Street.

She lost control, entering a wooded area, just missing a large tree and stopping short of going off a steep embankment.

The victim was treated at the scene by Lehighton paramedics before being transported to a local hospital.

Lansford police are investigating the incident.
