A rural La Farge man was injured in a single-vehicle crash Friday afternoon in the town of Webster.

The Vernon County Sheriff’s office said the crash happened around 2:15 p.m.

The 33-year-old was driving a Chrysler Sebring convertible north on Salem Ridge Road. The vehicle crested a knoll just south of an intersection with East Salem Ridge Road, Smart Hollow Road, and Bloomingdale road.

The driver continued straight and met an oncoming vehicle in the intersection.

The La Farge man said he steered slightly and lost control. The vehicle spun around and went off the roadway, traveled down an embankment, hit a fence, and overturned, hitting a tree.

The driver was wearing a seatbelt and had minor injuries. He was transported by La Farge ambulance to Vernon Memorial Healthcare in Viroqua where he was treating and released.
