Share

ONTARIO COUNTY, NEW YORK — A Texas truck driver sustained minor injuries Friday morning after losing control on a curve and overturning his tractor-trailer loaded with plate glass on State Route 14A in the Town of Seneca, shutting down the roadway for several hours.

The Ontario County Sheriff’s Office responded at approximately 7:24 a.m. to the area of State Route 14A and Lake to Lake Road. Investigators determined Philip Ashi, 53, of Houston, Texas, was traveling northbound when he lost control while navigating a curve. The truck and trailer overturned and slid into a ditch along the north shoulder, damaging both the vehicle and its cargo of plate glass.

Stanley Fire Department and Stanley Ambulance crews treated Ashi at the scene for minor arm injuries. The roadway closed while crews worked to remove the truck and clean up the debris. It reopened around noon.
