A 40-year-old woman from Wyoming suffered a concussion in an automobile accident yesterday on Route 20 in Alexander.

Her infant was uninjured.

Eleen M. Campbell, of 11005 East Road, Wyoming, was taken by ground ambulance to Strong Memorial Hospital following the 9:24 a.m. accident.

Campbell reportedly lost control of her vehicle and it spun around several times before entering the eastbound lane of Route 20 where it was struck by a tractor-trailer. Her estimated speed prior to losing control was 45 mph. She was cited for unsafe speed for conditions.

The driver of the truck was Donald E. Patton of Willis, Texas. He was not injured in the accident.
