Wyoming County Deputies investigate big rig crash

A motor vehicle accident on RT20A in the Town of Warsaw shut down RT20A and also left residents in the area without power for several hours on Monday.
John W. Dill, 52, of Texas, was operating a tractor trailer eastbound on RT20A at about 11:15 a.m. when he fell asleep at the wheel. The tractor trailer left the roadway, going off the south side of RT20A and sheering off a utility pole. The 2016 Volvo tractor was able to be driven from the scene but the trailer he was pulling needed to be towed due to damage it sustained in the accident. DILL was issued a ticket for Failure to keep right and is to appear in the Town of Warsaw Court at a later date. There were no injuries reported from the accident.
The Warsaw Fire Department assisted at the scene for several hours helping with traffic control.
