The man was ultimately flown by CareFlight to the hospital, Osborne said.
Officers are now working to investigate the crash, but Osborne said that after a preliminary look at the crash, it seemed the car first hit a tree and the possibly a light pole.
The crash threw the car’s engine block across the street.
Other information was not available, Osborne said, partly because of a language barrier and that the driver was not in a condition to talk much.
The crash remains under investigation.
