Woman, 80, Crashes Into Townhouse: Oswego Police

OSWEGO, IL — An 80-year-old woman was hospitalized after she crashed into a townhouse Thursday, Oswego police said.

The crash happened just after noon. The woman, a resident of Aurora, was driving on Lincoln Station Drive when she left the roadway and drove through the back lot of a set of houses before crashing into one, police wrote in Friday's blotter. She had been driving without a license or car insurance, officials indicated.

Police initially said no injuries were reported, but the blotter indicated the woman was hospitalized with minor injuries.

It's unclear if the woman had a medical emergency or how much damage was done to the townhouse. Oswego police did not respond to Patch's request for comment.

The woman was cited with operating an uninsured vehicle, driving on a canceled driver's license, improper lane use and failure to reduce speed.
