A paramedic assists a man whose car landed in a canal next to I-215 near 1500 North Tuesday afternoon. John Hudson, 77, of Idaho Falls, suffered only minor injuries in the accident. He was taken to the Veteran's Administration Medical Center, where he was in stable condition Wednesday. Hudson was alone in the car. Witnesses said they thought the northbound car may have had a blow-out, which caused Hudson to lose control of the vehicle, but Utah Highway Patrol troopers were also investigating the possibility he was forced off the road and then overcorrected. The accident is still under investigation.
