Semi hauling hay overturns on highway
Two people were taken for treatment after a semi rollover in Spallumceen that involved two other vehicles.
RCMP responded to the 2600 block of Highway 97 around noon on Wednesday (Oct. 27).
A tractor trailer pulling dual flat deck trailers and transporting large hay bales failed to negotiate a sharp curve southbound on the highway at Salmon River Road.
“The tractor trailer overturned, sideswiping a northbound semi-truck and Toyota pick-up truck. The drivers of the overturned tractor trailer and pickup truck were transported from the scene by B.C. Ambulance Service for treatment of non-life threatening injuries,” said Constable Chris Terleski, media relations officer for Vernon North Okanagan RCMP.
