The wreck happened around midnight east of Route 29 when the driver collided with the tree and became ejected from his vehicle. The Jaws of Life was used to pull him from the crashed vehicle.

According to news reports, the wreck remains under investigation by authorities. The driver was charged with driving under the influence.
