KELL, IL — A Dix woman was injured Sunday morning in a crash that brought power lines down across Route 37.

85-year-old Norma Tate was northbound on the highway a mile south of Kell Road when her vehicle ran off the east side of the road. Tate over corrected, skidded and spun the rear of the vehicle into a utility pole, breaking it and causing the lines to come down on the roadway.

Tate was taken to Salem Township Hospital for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash.

Route 37 was closed to traffic for about an hour and a half.
