Belleville police, firefighters and paramedics were called to Highway 2 east of Elmwood Drive Sunday around 2 p.m. to respond to a serious crash.

Police say a pickup truck with four occupants was in the eastbound lanes when it lost control and rolled over a number of times, shearing off a section of the vehicle on a utility pole before coming to a stop.
