HAGERSTOWN, Md. (AP) -- Washington County sheriff's deputies say a Hagerstown woman ran her car into somebody's front porch with a 2-year-old child in the vehicle, and then drove off.

They say 29-year-old Elizabeth Gardner called police afterward and said she had hit a tree.

Gardner told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Monday that she had suffered a seizure while driving.

Deputies say Gardener sustained minor injuries but the child wasn't hurt.

Witnesses told police that Gardner's car left Alternate U.S. 40 and knocked over a stop sign before destroying the porch of a home in Funkstown at about 5 a.m. Friday.

Gardner is charged with hit-and-run, failure to control speed and failure to display a driver's license.
