A female driver was sent to hospital with minor injuries after her vehicle crashed into a power pole at a high speed in Grande Prairie, Alta., early Sunday.

Police believe “the vehicle was entering an S curve at a high rate of speed, lost control and struck a power pole,” according to a news release from RCMP.

A police collision reconstructionist is at the scene, and police continue to investigate what happened.

The stretch of road along 100 Street between 72 Avenue to 75 Avenue in Grande Prairie is closed and police expect a “lengthy delay.” As such, drivers might want to find alternate routes.
