Rain Blamed For Truck Crash

A rollover acci­dent in DeKalb County is being blamed on the weekend’s down­pours. 59 year old Jack Sze­man of Hamil­ton was try­ing to enter I-69 on the south­bound entrance ramp from U.S. 6 when his Ford F-350 went out of con­trol on the water cov­ered pave­ment Sat­ur­day night just after 11PM. The truck skid­ded off the ramp and slammed into an earth embank­ment, then rolled over. Sze­man was not hurt in the crash. Accord­ing to police, it was a com­bi­na­tion of water on the road, along with the poor con­di­tion of the truck’s tires that caused the accident.
