Crash stops traffic

Update 11:40 a.m.

A small Toyota was damaged Thursday morning when a large semi truck struck the car while it was attempting to make a left hand turn.

The incident happened at the corner of Gordon Drive and Harvey Avenue around 10:30 this morning.

Police say it appeared the truck was turning north onto Gordon from the middle lane of Harvey, something that is common practice with vehicles of that size.

The blue car was trying to make the same turn from the left turning lane and ended up getting cut off.

A woman and her young child were inside the car. Neither were injured in the crash.

The driver of the semi was also unhurt.

Traffic was disrupted for almost one hour at the intersection, but has now been cleared.


Traffic on Harvey was at a standstill Thursday morning as a large semi and a small vehicle collided.

There are no reports of serious injuries. The accident happened just before 11 a.m.

Traffic was being rerouted around the monstrous rig.

More details to come.
