An initial investigation found a Blue Chevy Trailblazer driven by the 17-year-old was traveling northwest on SR-571 when an unknown vehicle was traveling southeast and went left of center coming at him, according to a media release.
The 17-year-old told deputies he swerved to avoid a crash, which caused him to run off the right side of the road, hitting a ditch and a tree before coming to rest on its passenger side.
He was taken to Wayne Hospital for suspected injuries.
