KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – A Lakeport woman was injured in a single-vehicle rollover that occurred early Saturday morning, with the driver arrested for driving under the influence.
Natalie Schneder, 24, was hurt in the crash, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Kory Reynolds.
Reynolds said 25-year-old William David Findlay of Lakeport was arrested following the wreck, which occurred shortly before 6:15 a.m. Saturday on Highway 29 just north of Kelseyville Auto Salvage.
Findlay was driving a 1997 Ford Ranger southbound on Highway 29 at an unknown speed with Schneder as his passenger, Reynolds said.
Reynolds said Findlay lost control in a right curve, drove off the roadway and rolled over.
Radio reports indicated that firefighters arrived to find the pickup on its top, with both Findlay and Schneder able to get out of the vehicle on their own.
However, firefighters called for an air ambulance due to Schneder's injuries, with a landing zone set up for REACH 6 at Kit's Corner, according to reports from the scene.
Schneder suffered lacerations to her head, face and legs, and complained of abdominal pain. Reynolds said she was flown to Kaiser-Vacaville.
Reynolds did not have an update on Schneder's condition on Monday.
Findlay, who was arrested about a half hour after the crash, was booked into the Lake County Jail for driving under the influence causing bodily injury, with bail set at $30,000, according to his booking sheet.
Jail records showed he posted the required percentage of bail and was released.
