Posted: February 6th, 2010 8:51 AM

A Madras-area man was seriously injured Friday morning when the car he was driving traveled off Highway 26 about 1/2 mile east of Rhododendron and crashed into a tree.

On February 5, 2010 at approximately 9:05 a.m. a 1989 Toyota Camry four-door driven by CRAIG ALBERT HEYING, age 24, from Madras, was eastbound on Highway 26 near milepost 45 when it traveled off the right shoulder, sideswiped a tree and then crashed head-on into another tree. HEYING was found lying on the ground outside of his car seriously injured.

HEYING was transported by AMR ambulance to the Welches area from where he was taken by LifeFlight to Legacy Emanuel Hospital. He was using safety restraints.

HEYING's pit bull dog, LEO, was missing following the crash. Last evening the dog was located, unfortunately he was deceased. The Oregon State Police would like to thank all those who attempted to find LEO so he could be returned to his owner.
