JOYCE — State Highway 112 near Joyce is blocked in both directions this evening (Wednesday) after paramedic crews were called to a “medical emergency,’ the State Patrol said.

The State Patrol received a call of a car driving erratically along Highway 112 at about 4:30 p.m., said Trooper Russ Winger, State Patrol spokesman.

The car reportedly pulled over on its own, Winger said, and paramedic crews were called to the scene.

“It’s not a crash,” Winger said, adding that he did not have any other details at the time.
