LUCERNE – A Lucerne woman sustained minor injuries in a vehicle rollover that occurred Monday.


Erica Soto, 41, was traveling westbound on Highway 20 west of Harvey in Lucerne shortly after 3:30 p.m. when she failed to negotiate a right curve in the road and traveled off the west edge, according to California Highway Patrol Officer Adam Garcia.


Soto's green 2000 Dodge Caravan rolled over and came to rest on its wheels along the lakeshore, Garcia said.


Initial reports indicated that the vehicle went into the lake but that was not the case when CHP arrived on scene, Garcia noted.


Soto was transported to Sutter Lakeside Hospital with minor injuries, Garcia said.


Garcia said CHP currently believes that Soto was under the influence of a controlled substance at the time of the collision and that substance is to be determined by the investigating officer.
