22-Year-Old Woman Dies In Menifee Rollover Crash

MENIFEE (CBS) — A 22-year-old woman from Menifee was killed in a rollover crash in Menifee.

The collision, which occurred about 3:05 a.m. Saturday, took place just east of Garbani Road past Bradley Road in Menifee.

According to sheriff's deputies, the deceased was the driver of an off-road vehicle.

She apparently lost control of the car, struck a dirt embankment and was ejected after the car rolled over multiple times.

The coroner identified the victim as Elizabeth Jonsson. She was pronounced dead at the scene at 3:31 a.m.

A passenger in the vehicle, identified only as a male, suffered moderate injuries in the accident.

He was taken to Inland Valley Hospital in Wildomar for medical treatment.
