Trapped in

A Dunkirk man lost control of his vehicle along county road 300 South, causing it to hit several trees and him to become trapped in his car about 6:20 a.m. Monday.

Curt J. Nelson, 51, Dunkirk, told police he was driving east on county road 300 South when a deer ran in front of his 2006 Ford Taurus. He swerved to miss the animal and lost control of his vehicle, causing it to go off the east side of the road and spin onto its side before hitting some trees in a wooded area.

Nelson was trapped in his vehicle, but he said he had no injuries and refused medical assistance, according to a Jay County Sheriff’s Office report. Dunkirk Fire Department and rescue team removed Nelson from his vehicle, which was towed.

Damage is estimated between $25,000 and $50,000.
