A man from Shenandoah was injured during a single-vehicle accident early Tuesday afternoon, in Fremont County. The Sheriff’s Office reports deputies responded at around 12:42-p.m. to the 2400 block of Highway 59, for a vehicle that had struck a tree head-on.

Deputies determined that Daniel Douglas, of Shenandoah, was southbound on Highway 59 in a 2015 Ford Focus, when the vehicle left the road and struck a guardrail on the west side of the road.  The vehicle continued south on Highway 59 before hitting a tree head on, and coming to rest.

Douglas suffered unknown injuries and was transported to the Shenandoah Hospital by Shenandoah Rescue. Deputies cited him for Failure to Maintain Control. Shenandoah Police and Shenandoah Fire and Rescue assisted the Fremont County Sheriff’s Office with the call.
