Emergency crews are on the scene of a rollover crash on River Road in Tilbury.
Just after 9 a.m. on Tuesday morning (Sept. 3), Delta police and firefighters were called to a motor vehicle accident on River Road at Huston Road.
Pictures from the scene appear to show a minivan on its roof in a ditch on the south side of River Road next to a damaged railway signal.

According to a freelancer on the scene, one person was rescued from the crash and transported to hospital with undetermined injuries.
Cris Leykauf, public affairs manager for the Delta Police Department, confirmed the driver was the sole occupant of the minivan and sustained only minor injuries. No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
River Road was closed in both directions for nearly two hours but was reopened just before 11 a.m. Drivers are advised to use caution as railway crews repair the damaged signal.
