Single vehicle collision sends local man to hospital

At approximately 22:35 McCracken County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to a single vehicle collision at 1955 North Friendship Rd. Upon arrival the driver of the vehicle was identified as 23 year old Scott Horn of Gilbertsville
Kentucky. He advised Deputies that prior to him entering the curve a deer entered the roadway in front of him and he attempted to avoid the deer. While doing so he over-corrected his steering and ended up entering the ditch and
striking 2 trees, breaking one off about 3 feet above the ground. He avoided serious injury in the collision and only reported minor injuries to his right arm. He was transported to a local hospital for treatment of his minor injuries.
