A Portland woman was injured in a rollover crash Friday afternoon on state Highway 14 at Southeast 192nd Avenue, according to the Washington State Patrol.

The crash was reported shortly before 3 p.m. at Milepost 10.

A 1997 Toyota 4Runner was traveling west in the left lane when it swerved to the left shoulder to avoid tire debris. The driver overcorrected, and the vehicle rolled coming to a rest on its wheels in the left lane, according to a State Patrol crash memo.

The driver, identified as 46-year-old Melissa L. Rotramel, was taken to PeaceHealth Southwest Medical Center, the State Patrol said.

Troopers said Rotramel was not wearing a seat belt.

The crash is under investigation, but drugs and alcohol were not involved, the crash memo states.
