On April 8, 2021, at 2126 hours NLCRPD was dispatched to the 200 block of Auction road for the report of a vehicle accident involving a truck and trailer. On scene, officers discovered that the truck and trailer were hauling three cars. The vehicle and trailer had been traveling westbound on Auction road when it overturned and struck both a guard rail and a utility pole. The crash resulted in damage to the truck, trailer, and all three cars on board. The driver of the truck, Daniel TINEO of New York, was not injured. PP&L was contacted to assess the damaged pole and Penn Township Road Department was contacted to address the damaged guard rail. A preliminary investigation suggested that an equipment malfunction was likely a primary cause of the accident.
