LUZERNE COUNTY -- A jeep rollover backed-up midday traffic on a busy stretch of road.

The jeep was the only vehicle involved in the crash in Wilkes-Barre Township on Highland Park Boulevard near Schechter Drive.

Two girls in the jeep weren't hurt. The southbound lane was closed for a time while clean-up crews cleared the scene.

Also in Luzerne County, police are looking for a woman who fled the scene of a one car crash. Authorities towed away a badly damaged Camaro from Route 315 in Laflin.

Officers found the car Sunday morning against a guide-rail. They determined a woman fled the scene of the crash around 10:00 A. M. by leaving in a truck.

Police identified the car's co-owners as Cassie Price and James Schock of Hughestown. Officers already questioned Schock but at last report are still trying to track down Price.
