A Johnson County deputy was injured when he lost control of his patrol vehicle and slid into an oncoming truck.

Johnson County Attorney Julie D. Smith says deputy Andrew Schroeder was driving eastbound on Highway 41 about noon Friday in response to a call to assist another deputy when he lost control of his vehicle. Schroeder crashed into the truck and had to be extricated from the patrol vehicle.

Schroeder was flown by medical helicopter to a hospital in Lincoln, where he was listed in fair condition.
