An Eaton County deputy crashed his cruiser into another car near downtown Charlotte Thursday afternoon while he was rushing to a burglary call.

These pictures were sent to us from a News 10 viewer, Terry Lowery, who tells us the accident happened right on his property.

The sheriff's department tells WILX.com, the deputy had his emergency lights and siren on and was passing a row of cars on southbound Cochran Street when one of the the cars turned into his path.

The deputy was not hurt, but his car was totaled. The driver of the other car was taken to Sparrow Hospital, but the victim's injuries do not appear to be life threatening.
