One person was transported after a rollover accident Sunday morning on Highway 290, near Burton.

Around 11:15 a.m., Brenham and Burton firefighters were dispatched to Highway 290 West and Three Oaks Lane for a report of a transportation incident with entrapment.  EMS arrived on scene and found no one entrapped.

According to DPS Sergeant Justin Ruiz, a 2019 Chevy Silverado was headed westbound on Highway 290 when it failed to maintain a single lane, ran off the road and struck a tree.  The vehicle then went down the embankment and rolled over.

The driver, 75-year-old Larry Reichle of Giddings, was taken to Baylor Scott & White Medical Center in College Station for suspected minor injuries.  No one else was in the vehicle, and no other vehicles were involved.
