CLEARLAKE OAKS, Calif. – A Clearlake Park man suffered moderate injuries in a vehicle rollover near the Elem Indian Colony on Saturday.
Aaron Lang, 30, was injured in the crash, which occurred at approximately 12:55 p.m. Saturday, according to the California Highway Patrol's Clear Lake Area office.
The CHP report said Lang was driving his 1997 Ford Thunderbird northbound on Sulphur Bank Drive, one mile south of Elem Road, when – for reasons yet to be determined – he lost control of his car and it overturned, hitting a group of trees on the side of the road.
Lang was wearing his seat belt, according to the CHP, who also reported that driving under the influence is not believed to be a factor in the crash.
Northshore Fire Protection District transported Lang by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment, the CHP said.
Lang reported on Lake County News' Facebook page that his car was totaled and he was “pretty banged up,” but that he was blessed to be able to go home to his wife and children.
