Detroit Lakes, Minn. (KDLM) – A man was injured during a single-vehicle crash on Interstate 94 in Otter Tail County on Tuesday morning.

On Nov. 28 at 7:10 a.m., a Mercedes C Sedan, driven by 47-year-old Lloyd Barima Donkor of Lakeville was westbound on Interstate 94 near mile marker 46 in Oscar Township when it entered the median of the roadway, crossed into the eastbound lanes of traffic and came to rest in the southside ditch.

Airbags deployed in the Mercedes during the crash.

Donkor suffered non-life-threatening injuries during the incident and was transported to Lake Region Hospital in Fergus Falls for treatment.

Donkor was wearing his seatbelt at the time of the crash and law enforcement believes alcohol did not factor into the incident.
