JOLIET, Ill. - A 24-year-old Plainfield woman is in serious condition after striking two vehicles and a tree in a rollover crash Tuesday night in southwest suburban Joliet.

About 6:01 p.m., the woman was driving a Hyundai Elantra eastbound on Black Road near Midland Avenue when she rear-ended a Ford Transit van driven by a 51-year-old Joliet man along with four passengers, Joliet police said in a statement.

After striking the van, the Elantra fishtailed and crossed in front of the Ford before striking a Subaru Legacy, driven by a 76-year-old Joliet resident, police said.

Police said the Elantra then left the roadway, struck a tree and rolled over back onto Black Road.
