An 18-year old driver was taken to the hospital Sunday late Sunday afternoon after a one vehicle accident in Mecosta County's Colfax Township.

Sheriff Deputies say it happened on 16 Mile near Mudd lake Rd, that's where the 18-year old driver rolled his car while attempting to miss a deer in the roadway. The driver was taken to CoreWell Health ER in Big Rapids with minor injuries.

Sheriff Miller and the Mecosta Co Sheriffs Deputies want to remind motorists to never swerve to miss animals, and to always wear your seatbelt.
