An early morning crash on Highway 6 in Glenwood resulted in a Life Flight ride to a hospital Saturday morning.

According to Forest Grove Fire & Rescue, crews responded to the scene of a single vehicle crash next to the Glenwood Food Mart just before 4 a.m. Saturday.

After extracting the driver from the vehicle, the patient was driven to Banks' helicopter landing pad on the patch of land formed by the Highway 6 off-ramp curve where it intersects with Main Street.

On scene, Forest Grove Fire & Rescue was assisted by the Banks Fire District and the Washington County Sheriff's Office.
