A Sabine County Sheriff’s Department Deputy was injured in a crash while responding to a call shortly before 8:00 Thursday evening. According to DPS Sergeant David Hendry, Deputy Alex Eichler had emergency lights activated as he drove his patrol car northbound on Highway 184 near Starr Funeral Home. Hendry said 67- year-old Gerald Wood, of Nacogdoches, was backing out onto the roadway in a 2021 Ford SUV, and into the path of the patrol car. Hendry said the patrol car struck the SUV, which then hit a 2016 Volkswagen car that was parked on the side of the road. Deputy Eichler was transported to Sabine County Hospital in Hemphill for treatment, while Wood was not injured.
