VIGO COUNTY, Ind – More details have been released on a weekend accident on I-70 on the west bound span of the I-70 river bridge.
The Vigo County Sheriff’s Department says that a flat bed commercial truck driven by Spyridon Visvardis of Oaklawn, Illinois was in the passing lane turning left into the median to deliver construction supplies.
A silver pickup driven by Michael Nave of North Webster, Indiana was in the passing lane directly behind the flat bed truck.
Officers say that it for an unknown reason Nave didn’t slow and hit the rear of the flatbed truck at a high rate of speed and causing severe damage to his truck.
Nave had to be cut from his truck.
He was taken to Terre Haute Regional Hospital and then flown to IU Medical Center in Indianapolis where he remains in stable condition.
Visvardis showed no signs of impairment and was not injured.
The flat bed truck had been carrying several hundred gallons of epoxy which took time for the Haz Mat Team and Eddington wrecker service to clean up and make the interstate safe for travel.
