The Iowa State Patrol reports 22-year-old Leslie Jennings, of New Hampton, MO., was driving a 2009 Mercury eastbound on Birch Street, in northern Lineville, when she ran the stop sign with Highway 65.

The vehicle rolled-over, causing Jennings to be ejected. She was not wearing a seat belt. The car came to rest on its roof. The crash happened at around 6:55-a.m., Friday.

Jennings was flown to Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines for treatment of her injuries.
