Single-Vehicle Crash on Quarry Rd

On April 1 at approximately 3:05 PM, Washington County emergency responders received a call in regard to a single-vehicle wreck near 2013 Quarry Rd, Salem involving a white Ford Ranger XLT. The female driver, unidentified at this time, informed dispatch that she believed her leg was broken, but that she was not trapped in the vehicle. Upon arriving on scene, I spoke with Captain Joe Keltner to discuss how the wreck occurred.

“The driver of the white truck would have been traveling westbound on Quarry Rd. She came off the road a little bit and got pulled in and hit a tree,” said Captain Keltner.
