Driver listed in stable condition after semi accident on Old Paris Road

Officials were called to the scene of an accident involving a semi just before 12:45 p.m. on Old Paris Road in Vigo County. Lt. Brent Hall with the Vigo County Sheriff’s Office stated the westbound semi, carrying a load, was possibly going too fast for the turn just outside of West Terre Haute near Bennett Ln. That is when the load the semi was carrying shifted and eventually flipped the semi. Hall stated a second vehicle, a Mercury traveling east on Old Paris Road, had to swerve after the semi rolled. Other than some of the load from the semi hitting the car, the Mercury was not damaged and the driver, who is from Missouri, did not sustain any injuries.
