A woman was transported to the hospital after a pickup truck crashed into a pole and drove into a bar’s beer garden in downtown Grayslake, police said.

The Grayslake Fire Protection District and Grayslake-Hainesville Police Department responded around 8:06 a.m. Wednesday to Charlie’s, 255 Center Street, for a report of a vehicle that crashed into a building.

Grayslake-Hainesville Police Department Chief Jeff Myhra said a Toyota Tundra pickup truck was traveling northbound on Seymour Avenue.

The driver, a 35-year-old woman, suffered what appeared to be a medical episode while driving.

The Toyota struck a light pole on the northwest corner of Seymour Avenue and Center Street, Myhra said.

The Toyota then traveled back southbound across Center Street and struck the beer garden at Charlie’s bar.

Myhra said the woman was conscious but resisting the paramedics at the scene.

She was transported to a local hospital for treatment of her medical condition but did not suffer any injuries from the crash itself.

A child was also in the Toyota at the time, Myhra said. The juvenile was unharmed.

A wall between the sidewalk and the bar’s beer garden was damaged but the bar itself did not appear to sustain serious damage.
