A man in Butler Township suffered minor injuries after a crash earlier this week.
Butler Township Police were called to the 200 block of Meridian Road on Tuesday for a vehicle crash. Upon arrival the driver of the vehicle, 54-year-old Patrick McDonald of Lyndora, told police his dog had jumped onto his lap while driving.
