Late Wednesday afternoon, firefighters from Grantham and Wayne County EMS Station 3 were dispatched to the scene of a one vehicle accident on the 300 block of Weaver Road. When firefighters arrived, they found the driver was trapped inside of the car. The driver was quickly extricated from the vehicle. EMS personal assisted the driver to a nearby rescue truck where he was checked out and later taken to the hospital with injuries. The car was apparently heading north on Weaver Road when the driver ran of right side of the road, down into a ditch and struck a driveway culvert. The vehicle went airborne, flipping upside down, and hit a light pole before coming to a rest on its roof. The accident is under an investigation by the State Highway Patrol. No information on the driver’s identity was available due to the investigation.
