HOPE - A woman was flown to a hospital by Lifeflight helicopter Monday afternoon after her Ford Explorer rolled over on Hatchet Mountain Road.

A dispatcher for the Knox County Sheriff's Department was unable to provide the woman's name or which hospital she was taken to, but said her injuries appeared to be non-life threatening.

The crash took place shortly after noon, at the bottom of a hill near Alford Lake. The woman was alone in the truck. The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
