A head-on two-vehicle crash late Sunday injured five people in Rock County after a truck crossed the center line and hit an oncoming car, authorities said Monday.

The driver, 17-year-old Arick A. Vance, was trapped inside and rescued by deputies, who also used a fire extinguisher to tamp down the smoke. Vance was taken to Mercy Hospital and Trauma Center for injuries that are not believed to be life-threatening.

The car, a Dodge Avenger, was found in the north ditch. The driver was a 16-year-old girl from Evansville who was driving with an instructional permit with her mother, Shanda L.

The driver was listed in critical but stable condition with internal injuries, while the passengers received minor injuries, the news release stated.
