COLTON – A truck driver injured in a Colton accident was air-lifted to Burlington, Vt., after his vehicle left the roadway on State Highway 56 today (Jan. 19).
Deputies responded to an accident call at 7:53 a.m. and found that a tractor-trailer driven by Moustafa Mersal, 59, of Stamford, Conn., had left the road and hit several trees in an enbankment.
Mersal was initially transported to Canton-Potsdam Hospital for injuries to his midsection and lower body.
He was later air lifted to Fletcher-Allen Medical Center in Burlington.
Colton Fire and Rescue, Pierrepont Fire Department, Potsdam Rescue and New York State Police assisted deputies.
The incident is under investigation.
Mersal’s condition remains unknown.
