According to a press release, officers are investigating a serious crash in North Dumfries, where a man was sent to hospital.
It happened around 6:30 a.m. at the intersection of Trussler and Gladstone roads. Police said a Volkswagen and a Chevrolet collided, leaving the 22-year-old driver of the Volkswagen with serious injuries.

The area was closed for several hours for the investigation. Officials said they believe charges will be laid in the case.
