A Peck man required transport by Lifenet Helicopter following a Sunday accident in Elk Township.
It was around 1:30 p.m. that Sanilac County Sheriff deputies were notified of a single-vehicle crash on Harrington Road near Farr Road. They were accompanied to the scene by Elk Township Fire Department and Sanilac EMS.
Investigation found that the driver, a 19-year-old from Peck, was headed west on Harrington Road in his 2001 Ford Escape when he lost control of the vehicle, entering a south ditch and overturning. The man was ejected during the crash, with airbags not deploying. He required helicopter transport from the scene to Flint Hurley Hospital for treatment.
Deputies believe that he was not wearing his seat belt, and that drugs or alcohol were not involved.
