Child Hurt, Woman Airlifted After Bristol Crash: Sheriff's Office

YORKVILLE, IL — A Bristol woman was airlifted to a local trauma center and a 9-year-old was taken to a local hospital after a Wednesday afternoon crash in the 2000 block of Bristol Ridge Road, the Kendall County Sheriff's Office said. According to the sheriff's office, deputies responded to the scene for a report of a single-vehicle accident at 12:35 p.m., closing down Bristol Ridge Road for a short period. An investigation revealed 37-year-old Kate Paolinelli, of the 2000 block of Cannonball Trail, was driving northbound on Bristol Ridge Road, when her vehicle left the roadway, rolled over and hit a utility pole, the sheriff's office said.

Both Paolinelli and the child passenger sustained non-life threatening injuries

According to the sheriff's office, Ms Paolinelli was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, and operating an uninsured motor vehicle.

Bristol Ridge Road is now open, the sheriff's office said, after utility pole repairs and the investigation shut it down for a bit Wednesday.
