NAPOLEON, IN — It was a busy Saturday night for the Napoleon Volunteer Fire Department.

Crews were called to a single-vehicle rollover accident just north of town on US 421 Saturday evening.

Investigators say the lone occupant was not seriously injured.

While on that call, Napoleon’s tanker was requested to provide mutual aid to Batesville for a barn fire on Mid Road.

Later that night, an unidentified motorcyclist was seriously injured when they laid down their bike on Michigan Road north of County Road 700 North.
