A 51-year-old Gilliam woman suffered minor injuries Tuesday morning, Jan. 20, in a one-vehicle crash on Missouri Highway 240 at the intersection with Route D, according to a Missouri State Highway Patrol report.

Beverly A. Foster went to Fitzgibbon Hospital for treatment, troopers said.

The crash occurred about 9:10 a.m. as Foster was traveling northbound and apparently went off the right side of the roadway, according to the report.

Foster overcorrected and the 1997 Mercury went off the left side of the roadway into a ditch, troopers said.

The vehicle overturned and came to rest in a field facing west, according to the report.

Foster was wearing a safety belt.
