Highway 69 in Denison was shut down early Saturday after the accident.
A Dodge pickup truck was headed Eastbound on HWY 84 when, according to police, the driver failed to negotiate a turn that caused the vehicle to plunge over 15 feet into a ravine.
While it’s still unclear when the crash happened, authorities say the man might have been trapped at the bottom of that ravine since Friday night.
Police say a passing motorist heard cries for help and called 911. The man was rescued around 1:30 Saturday afternoon and taken by helicopter to Parkland Hospital in Dallas.
The name of the driver has not been released, and no word on his condition.
