BEND, OR -- Black ice is blamed for a crash on Lava Butte, early Tuesday morning. 

Deschutes County deputies responded to a single-vehicle rollover, south of Bend, just after 4:30 a.m. They say the Ford Ranger pickup, driven by 52-year-old Daniel Robinson, slid off Highway 97. Robinson was taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries. 

Deputies say the road was wet with patches of black ice and they remind drivers to use extra caution with winter driving conditions.
