One person was hospitalized Thursday after a single-vehicle crash in Lexington, with injuries described as non-life-threatening, according to WKYT.

According to WKYT, the crash happened at Pleasant Ridge and Autumn Ridge drives. The lone person involved had to be pulled from the vehicle before being taken to the hospital.

Extent of Injuries Still Limited to Early Reports

The available report does not say what caused the crash or give its exact time. It also does not identify the person who was hospitalized.

Broader Lexington Road-Safety Context

The Lexington Area MPO says it adopted a Vision Zero policy in 2023 and committed to work toward eliminating traffic-related deaths and fatalities by 2050. That policy offers broader road-safety context, but does not identify a cause of this crash or establish how this location compares with local crash data. A separate Lexington collision had different circumstances: FOX 56 reported that a two-vehicle crash on Codell Drive on April 9, 2026, left one person trapped and another injured. One person was extricated, and the other was hospitalized with injuries not considered life-threatening.

WKYT noted that it had reached out to the Lexington Police Department for more information, but additional details had not been provided as of the station's report. Hoodline will update this story if further information becomes available.
