A truck was found in a ditch after it crashed early Saturday morning, according to dispatch reports.

According to online dispatch reports, Columbia police responded to I-70 Drive Southeast near Port Way around 4:45 a.m. Saturday for reports of a crash.

ABC 17 News heard reports that a truck crashed into a ditch after possibly hitting a utility pole.

ABC 17 News reporters saw police searching the area but didn’t see police talking with a possible driver.

Tire marks showed the truck was heading east when it drove off the right side of the roadway, crossed the road and crashed into a ditch on the left side of the roadway, according to the reporter.
