One person was injured Sunday in a two-vehicle crash at U.S. 127 and Weavers-Fort Jefferson Road in Darke County.

The two-vehicle injury crash just before 11 a.m. involved one vehicle rolling over, according to the Darke County Sheriff’s Office.

A 67-year-old driver of a 1999 Buick LeSabr pulled out in front of the 2008 Ford van driving south on U.S. 127, the sheriff’s office said.

The van then traveled off the right side of the roadway, rolled and came to rest on its top, deputies said.
