One Injured in Tractor Trailer Rollover in Heckscherville


The driver of a tractor trailer was transported after rolling a tractor trailer Friday evening.

The crash occurred around 7:00pm Friday when a truck hauling bottled water for Walmart made a wrong turn after coming off the Interstate.

The truck proceeded down the Heckscherville side of the Gordon Mountain, lost control, and flipped onto it's side at the intersection with Valley Road.

Cass Township Police at the scene said the driver was taken to the hospital with a shoulder injury.

Heckscherville and Minersville Fire Departments responded to the scene.  A crew also arrived on scene with a second tractor trailer to remove and haul the bottled water.

Valley Road and the Gordon Mountain were closed for several hours while the scene was cleared.
