McKean Township, PAFirst responders from McKean Hose Company, West County Paramedics, and Central County Paramedics were dispatched at around 3:20 AM Friday morning for a reported semi-truck rollover on Interstate 90 westbound near the 18-mile marker, just east of the Bear Creek Road overpass.West County 116 and Medic 4 responded shortly after dispatch. Erie County Dispatch advised that multiple callers were reporting the accident, and STAT MedEvac was placed on standby with an estimated 25-minute response time if needed. Rescue 408 responded to the accident within a couple minutes later.West County 116 arrived on scene and reported a tractor-trailer on its driver’s side blocking both westbound travel lanes. Initial reports indicated the driver was trapped inside the cab, with the windshield remaining intact. However, crews later advised that the driver was able to exit the cab without the need for advanced rescue operations.The tractor-trailer was reportedly hauling packages at the time of the crash. EMS personnel evaluated the driver, and West County 116 transported the patient to a nearby hospital for further evaluation. Due to the complete blockage of the westbound lanes, Fairview Lake Shore Fire Department was dispatched to assist with closing Interstate 90 at Exit 18 (Sterrettania Road) while emergency crews operated on the roadway.A heavy wrecker arrived on scene shortly after and was able to upright and remove the overturned tractor-trailer in a relatively short period of time. Once the vehicle was removed and debris cleared, Interstate 90 westbound was reopened to traffic.Near the scene, signs of the crash extended into the eastbound lanes. A construction arrow board sign was found mangled along the shoulder, while skid marks could be seen crossing the eastbound lanes, through the median, and into the westbound lanes. Damage to the guardrail was observed in the area where the overturned tractor-trailer was ultimately located by first responders.No additional information regarding the cause of the crash or the driver’s condition has been released at this time.

The ducklings were placed on a nearby lawn, where they patiently awaited their mother’s return. A short time later, the mother duck swooped in and landed nearby.
