MARTELLE, Iowa (KCRG) - One person was taken to a hospital after being involved in a rollover crash on Saturday morning.

At around 10:24 a.m., the Linn County Sheriff’s Office was sent to a report of a crash involving one vehicle near the corner of Iowa Highway 1 and Lehr Road. Deputies believe a 2018 Nissan Rogue rolled at least one time, ending in the east ditch of Highway 1 north of the intersection. Based on interviews and an investigation, deputies think that the vehicle struck a culvert and traffic sign in the east ditch, causing it to roll.

The driver of the vehicle was taken to Mercy Hospital in Iowa City via ambulance for treatment of unknown injuries. They were cited for failure to maintain control and expired registration.

The Mount Vernon/Lisbon Police, Anamosa Police, Jones County Sheriff’s Office, Martelle Fire Department, and Mount Vernon Ambulance were involved in the emergency response.
