A man and a woman were seriously injured when their car ran off the road Tuesday and became airborne, landing along a patio wall, Solebury Township Police said.

Officers responded to a report of a single-vehicle crash with injuries off Route 202 near Silver Tail Lane at 11:50 a.m. March 19. On arrival, officers located a 2012 Mercedes sedan in the rear yard of a house on the 200 block of Bobwhite Road in Fox Run Preserve.

Both the 57-year-old male driver, of New Hope, and 79-year-old female passenger, of Stockton, N.J., sustained serious injuries, police said.

Preliminary investigation shows that the Mercedes was traveling northbound on Route 202 before crossing into the southbound lanes and exiting the roadway, police said. The Mercedes continued onto a dirt embankment, becoming airborne, traveling into the common area of Fox Run Preserve and coming to final rest along a stone patio wall of a residence.

Anyone who may have witnessed the crash is asked to contact Solebury Township Police at 215-348-7400.

Both the driver and passenger were transported by Central Bucks EMS and Lambertville-New Hope Ambulance to St. Mary Medical Center, Langhorne, for treatment. Solebury Township Police were assisted on location by New Hope Eagle Fire Co.
