APPLE VALLEY – One patient was airlifted with major head trauma after a single vehicle traffic collision on the 15 freeway north just north of Stoddard Wells Road the County Fire Department officials said.

The female occupant, an Apple Valley resident was reported to have a head injury but was conscious and breathing when emergency personnel arrived.

The patient was transported by ground to the landing zone at Victor Valley Global Medical Center to prepare to be airlifted to Arrowhead Regional Medical Center.
