Oregon State Police (OSP) is seeking a witness who saw a minor injury traffic crash Monday afternoon at the Edenbower Boulevard overpass and Interstate 5 in Roseburg. The witness stopped at the scene but left before OSP troopers could get a statement as part of their investigation.

According to Senior Trooper Robert Gorman, on April 23, 2012 at approximately 12:30 p.m. a two-vehicle head-on crash occurred on the Edenbower Boulevard overpass at Interstate 5. The crash involved an eastbound black 2006 Nissan Altima driven by ABBY BUTTS, age 33, from Winston, and a blue 2003 Chevrolet pickup driven by DONALD PITMON, age 77, from Roseburg, as both vehicles entered the intersection.

BUTTS was transported by ambulance to Mercy Medical Center with minor injuries.

PITMON was not injured.

An unidentified adult female driving a red Ford Ranger pickup reportedly stopped at the scene but didn't provide a name or phone number, nor remain and provide a statement to police. OSP is asking this witness or any others who saw the crash to contact Senior Trooper Gorman for a statement at (541) 440-3334 ext. 4716.

OSP was assisted at the scene by Douglas County Fire District No. 2, ODOT and Roseburg Police Department.
