At 4:50 a.m., Ann Arbor officers responded to Jackson Avenue near Gralake Avenue after getting a crash notification from an iPhone. 

When they arrived, they discovered a vehicle heading westbound on Jackson Avenue. The vehicle left the roadway when it entered the curve close to Gralake Avenue, hitting multiple trees. 

The driver, an 18-year-old Ecorse man, sustained minor injuries and was taken to the hospital.
