SAN DIEGO, CA — A woman was hospitalized early Monday after a single-vehicle collision off an Interstate 8 exit ramp in San Diego’s Mission Valley West area, reports ABC 10 News.

The accident happened on the offramp from I-8 westbound to Hotel Circle shortly before 3:30 a.m.

It was not immediately clear what caused the crash, but authorities said the woman was driving westbound when her car overturned at the ramp and caught fire.

Two witnesses, a truck driver and a hotel security guard, ran toward the burning vehicle and pulled the female driver from the wreckage.

The victim was transported to a local hospital with undisclosed injuries. No updates on her condition have been released as of this writing.

No other injuries were reported in the event, and no further information has been made available at this time.

An investigation was in progress.
