    A 71-year-old man was injured Friday morning after a vehicle and a semi collided on U.S. Highway 69 near the intersection with West Ninth Street in Albert Lea.

    Antonio Navarro Casanova, of Albert Lea, was taken by Mayo Ambulance to Mayo Clinic Health System in Albert Lea for injuries deemed not life-threatening, according to the Minnesota State Patrol.

    The crash report stated a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 2005 Peterbuilt 379 tractor truck were southbound on Highway 69 at 11:47 a.m. when the vehicles collided at the intersection. Other details about what led to the crash have not yet been released.
