A truck driver will be cited after an incident on Interstate 81 Wednesday afternoon.
According to State Police at Frackville, around 4:30pm, a tractor trailer driven by Alexander Davis, of Lowville, NY was travelling North near Milemarker 113.5 on Interstate 81, in Foster Township.
Police say the straps holding down equipment on the flatbed trailer of Davis's truck came loose causing a piece of equipment to break away from Davis's trailer, striking the front of another truck driven by Joseph Hettich, of Honesdale.
Davis then reportedly fled northbound and was later stopped near Milemarker 138.
Authorities say Davis will be cited for the incident.
