Woman Survives Rollover Crash Monday

    An Apopka woman survived a harrowing crash Monday night in Umatilla.  Samantha Johnson, 26, was transported to Central Florida Regional Hospital in Sanford after a vehicle she was driving left SR 19, hit a tree, and overturned several times.
    Umatilla Police reports indicate Johnson was southbound on SR 19 around 8:36 p.m. Monday.  Traveling just south of Maxwell Road, the 2000 Ford F150 she was driving left the road on the right shoulder, struck a tree, spun, and rolled over several times.
    Emergency responders extracted Johnson from the vehicle, with the driver reportedly being alert enough to tell officers that she was texting on her phone at the time of the accident.
