A rollover on Highway 18 in Cowichan at approximately 9 a.m. on April 8 left one woman with non-life threatening injuries.

Sgt. Stuart Foster, from the Lake Cowichan RCMP detachment, said the single-vehicle accident, involving a black four-door car, occurred close to Skutz Falls.

“Traffic had to be diverted onto Old Cowichan Road for about 35 minutes while a tow-truck removed the car,” he said.

The woman in the vehicle was taken to hospital.

“The accident is under investigation.”

It was one of two crashes Monday in the Cowichan Valley.
