A vehicle wrecked after a driver apparently fell asleep early Thursday morning.

An Oregon State Police report said just after 4:30 a.m. a trooper responded to the accident on Highway 38, about three miles west of Scottsburg. The passenger side of the eastbound vehicle dipped into the ditch and the side of the pickup hit a protruding rock that flattened a tire.

Two occupants said they did not require any medical attention.
