MILLSBORO, Del. - A Salisbury man has been sent to the hospital after crashing in to a tree late Saturday night, per Delaware State Police. 

According to police, shortly before midnight, the 32-year-old Salisbury Man was driving a black 2011 Ford Fusion on Careys Camp Road. They say he approached a curve, but didn't turn sharp enough, causing the car to crash into a tree and catch fire. 

Police say the man was airlifted to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, but his passenger is listed as not being injured.

The crash seems to be DUI related, say police, with a warrant presumably to be executed when the man leaves the hospital. 

Both the Gumboro and Laurel fire departments responded to the fire.
