ANGOLA, IN (WTVB) – An Edon, Ohio man had to be flown out Monday night after his pickup truck collided with a semi tractor trailer on U.S. 20 east of Angola.
The Steuben County Sheriff’s Office says the accident happened just after 6:00 p.m. when 35 year old Franklin Figgins tried to pass a turning vehicle on the right.
The Figgins vehicle went out of control before it crossed the center line and into the path of the semi-tractor trailer.
The truck driver was not injured.
Figgins was flown to a Fort Wayne area hospital by the Samaritan Helicopter in serious but stable condition after being extricated from his vehicle.
The accident is still under investigation by the Steuben County Sheriff’s Office.
