PORT ANGELES — A Port Angeles woman was taken to Olympic Medical Center with a head injury from a rollover wreck Tuesday afternoon at 1332 Black Diamond Road.

Clallam County Fire District No. 2 rescued the driver of a Toyota 4 Runner after taking off its top.

“We had to open it up like a can of beans to get her out,” said Dan Huff, assistant chief.

The fire department did not identify the woman, citing privacy concerns.

“She hit a patch of ice and lost control” at about 1:30 p.m., Huff said.

Firefighters sent an engine, ambulance and command vehicle to the scene, which they expected to clear for two-way traffic by 3 p.m.

Neither of the two passengers were injured, Huff said.
