Capsule Reports

Drove off road

A Ridgeville man was injured after driving off the road Friday morning. 

Caleb M. Wynn, 25, told Jay County Sheriff’s Office he was driving north on Mount Pleasant Road near its intersection with county road 200 South when a deer ran onto the road. He swerved his 2011 Toyota Scion to avoid hitting the deer and lost control of the vehicle, which left the east side of the road and struck an embankment. 

Wynn complained of back pain and was treated at the scene.

Damage in the 7:35 a.m. accident is estimated between $2,500 and $5,000.

Mailboxes struck

A Decatur woman struck two mailboxes with her truck Friday morning while driving on Indiana 27.

Cristal Felts, 36, told Portland Police Department she was driving south on Meridian Street near its intersection with Third Street in Portland and was looking for something in her vehicle. Her 1995 GMC Sierra swerved, striking two mailboxes at 328 S. Meridian St. and knocking them off their post. 

Damage in the 9 a.m. accident is estimated to be less than $1,000.
