A 35 year old Sparta man escaped serious injury in a pickup truck crash Thursday afternoon on Highway 70 just past Sligo Bridge.
Trooper Jason Cobble of the Tennessee Highway Patrol told WJLE that Michael Stoglin was traveling west in a 1998 Chevy S10 pickup truck when he failed to negotiate a curve, ran off the road, and struck a rock embankment.
Stoglin was taken by DeKalb EMS to Saint Thomas DeKalb Hospital where he was treated for minor injuries and released. He was cited for failure to exercise due care.
