CALGARY- A woman is fighting for her life in hospital after a serious crash Friday night on Deerfoot Trail.
Officers were called just before 8 p.m. after a vehicle rolled near the exit ramp at Southland Drive.
Witnesses called 911 saying the vehicle had been driving erratically, before losing control and smashing through a chain link fence.
The 52-year-old driver was transported to the Foothills Hospital in critical condition. No other occupants were in the vehicle.
Police say alcohol appears to be a factor in the crash.

EDMONTON – Alberta’s newest Progressive Conservative members will sit in the legislature as far away as possible from their old Wildrose colleagues.
A seating chart shows that Kerry Towle and Ian Donovan are to sit in the back row on the government side of the house.

Tory backbenchers Doug Griffiths and Pearl Calahasen have been moved to the opposition side of the house to make room for the newcomers.

How the future of oil and gas in Alberta will affect Calgary’s housing market
The plummeting price of oil is unlikely to affect Calgary’s housing market in the immediate future, but a prolonged slump could eventually leave its mark on the local landscape, say Canadian economists.
