An 85-year-old man was taken to the hospital Saturday evening following a head-on collision on U.S. 6, according to the Marshall County Sheriff's Department.
The crash occurred at approximately 8:33 p.m. on March 21, 2026, near the intersection of U.S. 6 and Linden Road.
According to a report filed by Deputy Robert Williams, investigators determined that a 2007 Ford Focus, driven by 85-year-old David Patterson of Angola, was traveling in the area when it crossed over the center line.
