Trucker Cited For Damaging Local Highway Bridge

Associated Press

Columbus police have cited the driver of a tractor-trailer that crashed into the South High Street bridge over State Route 104 last Friday, causing structural damage. Police say 42-year-old Terry Ward of Newark was driving a vehicle too tall to fit underneath the bridge, destroying one steel beam and damaging three others. Turning lanes on the bridge remain closed.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
