SILVER CITY, N.M. (AP) — A woman traveling from Minnesota to New Mexico was trapped in her car overnight after driving off a road.

New Mexico State Police say Lynna Lopez was driving from Minneapolis to visit a friend in Silver City, New Mexico, when she missed a curve and drove off the road on Highway 152 near Emory Pass.

The Silver City Sun News reports that Lopez's car fell down a 30-foot embankment and she became trapped for almost a day. Her friend reported her missing but police never spotted her.

Police say Lopez suffered broken bones but did not have life-threatening injuries. She was airlifted to a hospital after a driver who pulled over near the crash site heard her screaming for help.
