A single-vehicle crash shut down the 3600 block of Pickett Road early Monday morning.

A black pickup truck careened through a fence, some trees and utility poles about a block west of the Belt before rolling into a ditch on the south side of the road.

Within an hour of the crash, authorities had not located the driver, and were unable to report whether anyone was hurt. Police at the scene said there was blood in the vehicle.

St. Joseph police alerted the public via a Nixel message about the road closure at about 2:46 a.m. The road reopened at about 5 a.m.
