White City, Ore. – Yesterday at about 2:20PM, OSP Troopers and emergency crews responded to the report of a single vehicle rollover on HWY 140 at milepost 24 (east of White City).

Preliminary information indicates a 2001 GMC pickup, driven by 69 year old Carl T MORRIS of Eagle Point, was traveling westbound when it is believed a bird flew into his open window.

MORRIS became distracted by the bird in the cab of his pickup, causing him to lose control. The vehicle rolled over and came to rest on its roof in the ditch.

MORRIS had been wearing his safety belt.
