MEDINA – A Modern Disposal truck lost control and rolled over on South Gravel Road about 1:30 this afternoon.
Trooper Stirk with the New York State Police said the driver evidently caught the shoulder of the road and couldn’t recover. He said two occupants were taken to Medina hospital to be checked out, but didn’t appear to be seriously injured.
The incident closed South Gravel Road from Oak Orchard Road to Fletcher Chapel for nearly two hours. The road opened at about 5 p.m.
Volunteers from Shelby Fire Department were on the scene, assisting with traffic control.
