Person dies after rollover crash in rural Allen Co.

WOODBURN, Ind. (WANE) – A person in an SUV died after a rollover crash on private property early Thursday morning.

Emergency personnel were called to 24209 Old U.S. 24 shortly before 2 a.m.

Parkview Samaritan Helicopter was dispatched to the area, but paramedics pronounced the victim dead before being transported.

It’s unclear if the victim was driving the vehicle or if they were the sole occupant of the vehicle. Emergency dispatchers initially said the crash was reported as a person pinned inside the vehicle.

The location of emergency vehicles was near the Maumee River and investigators were walking an area near a field about a quarter-mile from the road and several hundred yards from a nearby farm house.

The Allen County Sheriff’s Department has not released details about the crash.
