Thursday morning at approximately 5:30, the Caneyville Police Department responded to the 300 block of Southland Drive on the report of a single-car accident.

Upon Caneyville Police Chief Anthony Clark arriving on the scene, he found that Jerry Embry, of Caneyville, was traveling on Southland when, for unknown reasons, Embry lost control of his older model Ford pickup.

The vehicle left the road and struck a six-foot embankment and rolled onto its side, completely blocking the roadway.

Embry, who was unhurt in the accident, was briefly detained by Chief Clark after getting into a scuffle with someone at the scene, and later Chief Clark.
