An Indiana resident was injured in a Friday morning crash east of Altamont.

The crash occurred at 11:45am about five miles from town. State police say a westbound vehicle driven by Rachel Box of Carmel, Indiana ran off the roadway to the left, went through the median and both eastbound lanes and then struck and rolled over the guardrail and then down an embankment.

Box was taken to St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital in Effingham for treatment. She was cited for improper lane usage.
