Car crashes into creek

       A driver sustained what appeared to be minor injuries today just before noon when he lost control of the car he was driving.  The car rolled at least once after striking some trees and crashing into a creek bed according to firefighters from the White River Township Fire Department.  The driver, who was the lone occupant, was treated at the scene by paramedics and transported to the hospital by ambulance for a checkout.  Firefighters also cleaned up small amounts of fluids that leaked from the vehicle into the waterway.  The road was closed for about an hour while crews cleaned up the scene and the sheriff's department investigated the cause of the accident.
