Paramedics brought one person to the hospital following a single-vehicle crash this morning.

A pickup truck heading eastbound on Government Road headed into a ditch near Mapleward Road and struck a tree. Thunder Bay Police Const. Kerry Dunning says the female driver was shaken up, but was otherwise doing fine.

Police say she was brought to hospital as a precaution. The fire department had to help pull her out of the vehicle.

Dunning says the road was slippery. And although it may look clear there was still some ice. As a result, police are advising people to take caution while driving.
