N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – A man was injured after the sprayer he was driving was struck by a semi on Highway 20 roughly 4 miles North of Courtenay on Tuesday afternoon.

Sgt. Tom Herzig with the North Dakota Highway Patrol reports that Taylor Rose, 28, of Wimbledon was traveling eastbound on a gravel township road at around 25 mph before slowing at an intersection of Highway 20. Rose disregarded the stop sign and continued through the intersection.

James Ambrosier, 43, of Ault, Colorado was traveling south in a semi when he observed the sprayer slowing for the intersection. When Rose failed to stop, Ambrosier braked and drove onto the northbound lane to avoid a collision. The sprayer struck the side of the dump trailer and came to rest on the roadway. Rose was ejected.

Rose was flown to Fargo for continued observation. The highway was shut down for approximately one hour. There are currently no charges pending at this time as the situation remains under investigation.
