Crash In Steuben County.

A crash just outside of Angola on US 20, between IN 327 and N 900 W blocks all lanes for a time. According to Indiana State Police, a semi was traveling at a fast speed when the driver failed to navigate a turn and lost control…resulting in 40,000 pounds of steel being thrown across both lanes and side ditches. In the crash, the fuel tank was pierced causing a fuel spill that caught fire…as the flames soon engulf the entire vehicle. The semi driver, Duvall Arnold, 58 of West Palm Beach Florida, was able to escape out of the windshield receiving only minor injuries. Duvall refused medical treatment at the scene. US 20 was shut down in both directions while Indiana Department of Transportation crews worked to clean up the debris. The post-crash investigation continues.
