In Local, Police Blotter

A transport truck rolled onto its side early Saturday morning on January 2, 2021.

At approximately 4 a.m. the transport was heading westbound on Highway 401 when it went into the ditch just east of Danforth Road in Alnwick/Haldimand Township.

Weather at the time was snowing and icy conditions.

The driver wasn’t injured and it was decided to leave the transport in the ditch until the weather cleared.

Tow operators from the Toronto area arrived around 10 a.m. and worked on removing the transport.

One lane was blocked off while the rig was removed.
