6/14/2007

Northbound I-75 near the U.S. 20 exit in Perrysburg was closed for more than two hours at midday yesterday after a dump truck overturned, spilling its load of dirt, police said.

The driver, Henry Amesse, 64, of Toledo, was treated at St. Luke's Hospital after the crash, which occurred at 11 a.m.

It was unclear last night why Mr. Amesse lost control of the northbound truck. The crash remained under investigation.
