Indiana Central News An Illionois man was hospitalized after a semi truck rollover crash on Interstate 70 in Terre Haute this morning. Jessie B. Conner, 52, Bellville, Ill., suffered head and back injuries in the single - vehicle accident and was transported to a nearby hospital for treatment. Emergency crews responded to the scene at the 10 mile marker eastbound around 10 a.m. According to the report, the 2018 International semi-tractor trailer was traveling eastbound on I-70, just west of the State Road 46 exit, when it went off the road and flipped over. Conner drove off the south side of the roadway, striking more than 300-feet of a guardrail and rolled over onto the passenger side -- coming to a rest in a ditch, Indiana State Police Sgt. Matt Ames said. The crash caused the eastbound lanes of I-70 to be reduced to one lane for about four hours. Putnamville Troopers, Terre Haute Fire Department and Indiana Department of Transportation assisted at the scene. Comments are closed.
