A 58-year-old Toledo man is believed to have died from a medical event after a crash on a logging road off of Mineral Creek Road just after noon on Monday.

The man was operating a logging truck “when it is believed he had a medical event causing the vehicle to leave the logging roadway,” according to the Lewis County Sheriff’s Office.



“Damage to the vehicle was not severe, further leading to the suspicion of a medical event,” said Field Operations Bureau Chief Dusty Breen in an email to The Chronicle on Wednesday.

The man’s name has not been released by the sheriff’s office.
