A 20-year-old Patoka man was injured in a single-vehicle crash Saturday morning on the Gray Road south of the Berry Road intersection in rural Alma.

Marion County Sheriff’s Deputies say Jordan Gebke of McNichol Road was traveling northbound on the Gray Road when he ran off the right side of the pavement, overcorrected, and then ran off the left side of the road and struck a power pole.

Gebke called a family member for assistance and was taken to St. Joseph’s Hospital in Breese for treatment of injuries.

The power pole was not damaged, but the impact was hard enough to deploy the airbags in the vehicle.

The crash was reported around 6:30 Saturday morning.
