Update:

A single vehicle roll over crash on the Pat Bay Highway on Thursday afternoon brought northbound traffic crawling down to one lane.

The vehicle, it turns out, was stolen from Victoria just hours before and is one part of a strange series of criminal events that unfolded that day.

The female driver was eventually arrested and was treated for minor injuries suffered in the crash.

Earlier:

A single vehicle rollover crash on the Pat Bay Highway Thursday afternoon has brought northbound traffic down to just one lane.

At approximately 2:55 p.m., emergency crews were called to a stretch of Highway 17 between Island View Road and Mt. Newton Cross Road following reports of the vehicle landing in a green space located on the side of the highway.

Injuries are unknown at this time.

Commuters hoping to travel north up the highway should consider taking alternate routes to avoid delays.
