Emergency crews are at the scene of a crash west of Great Falls.

It happened at about 3:45 p.m. on Monday near mile marker 10 of US Highway 89.

According to the Montana Highway Patrol, the driver of the pickup truck drifted off the right side of the road, over-corrected, and then ran off the left side of the road. The vehicle went airborne, through a fence, and landed in a small creek.

The injuries to the driver do not appear to be life-threatening.

The MHP says that the driver does not appear to have been speeding, and was wearing a seatbelt.

There are no indications at this point that alcohol or drugs were involved.

Traffic is being routed around the scene as emergency crews work to recover the vehicle.

Responding agencies include the Montana Highway Patrol and Sun River Volunteer Fire Department.
