The investigation is on-going after a car flipped into a ditch on Tuesday evening outside of Port Lambton.

Const. Jamie Stanley of the OPP told the Sydenham Current that a Chevrolet Malibu was travelling eastbound on Lambton Line on Tuesday, Aug. 11 at 5:20 p.m.

“The vehicle went through the intersection at Highway 40, narrowly missing a northbound vehicle,” Stanley said.

The vehicle “went into a slide and into a ditch, rolled over onto its roof, resting on a culvert.”

Stanley said the driver, an 87-year-old St. Clair Township man, and the passenger, an 89-year-old St. Clair Township woman, had to be extricated from the vehicle.

Stanley said they were sent to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Members of the OPP, St. Clair Township Fire Department and Chatham-Kent EMS were at the scene, Stanley said.

Police are still investigating.
