Tractor-trailer slams into laundromat in Littlestown

"A victim was airlifted to the hospital after a tractor-trailer demolished Littlestown's only laundromat early Thursday morning, officials said.

Crews were first called to the crash around 5:30 a.m. Thursday morning on the 500 block of South Queen Street, Route 97, in Littlestown Borough, according to Adams County 911 records.

According to Charles Kellar, who serves as police chief and borough manager for Littlestown, the tractor-trailer was headed southbound on South Queen Street when the truck struck a parked vehicle, going overtop the parked vehicle and flipping on its side.

As the truck slid, it crashed through the front wall of the Littlestown Laundry Center, a business in the 500 block of South Queen Street, Kellar said.

When crews arrived, they faced an extensive and complicated extrication, with the truck's driver heavily trapped by debris and mangled metal.

"It took them a while to get to him," Kellar said, noting that crews had to work to shore up the building before they could enter the building to work on cutting the victim free from the wreckage.

The Advanced Technical Rescue team of Carroll County was called to the scene to assist with stabilizing the building, according to a release by the team.

Utility crews work to remove a downed utility pole entangled in a tractor-trailer at the scene of a crash with entrapment involving a tractor-trailer that crashed into a laundromat on the 500 block of South Queen Street, Thursday, Sept. 12, 2024, in Littlestown Borough.
Kellar said the truck driver was flown to a hospital in a medical helicopter that landed nearby.

The other vehicle involved was not occupied, and there were no other victims. No one was reportedly inside the business, which was open 24/7.

The truck crashed through a utility pole with multiple transformers that carried three-phase power to, among several customers, the borough's lift stations and wells, which lost power in the incident."

More at the link. The accident happened at 5:30 a.m., which is a good thing. The truck was owned by Freshway Foods and had pallets of lettuce inside. The driver is expected to recover.; १४/९/२४, ८:१२ AM
Whiskeybum म्हणाले...: Interesting - in the top photo, I can see the screen shutter button on Althouse’s right… when I take pictures with my phone, I have that on the left. When it comes to handedness, I’m cross-dominant. So when it comes to taking pictures with a phone, am I left handed and Althouse is right handed, or is it the ‘aiming’ hand that determines this?

Actually, most of the time I use my phone for landscape photos, I use the volume button for the shutter - I prefer the tactile feel of a real button to the screen button.; १४/९/२४, ८:१९ AM
Aggie म्हणाले...: Thanks for that ! I never realized that Knievel jumped the gorge on the same day Ford pardoned Nixon. I'd forgotten what a handy site RCP is, too.; १४/९/२४, ८:२८ AM
Political Junkie म्हणाले...: Aggie - Ann Althouse, Mickey Kaus, RealClearPolitics, and Twitter. Those are my 4. I won't tell you the college I graduated. Let's just say they call use Tsips. Cheers.; १४/९/२४, ८:४९ AM

Big Mike म्हणाले...: I always enjoy Jim Treacher. Here’s one of today’s zingers:

ABC’s debate moderators got top marks from mainstream journalists, including none other than CNN’s Jeffrey Toobin.

Well, he is a master debater.

It’s nice to see him giving somebody else a hand.; १४/९/२४, १२:०७ PM
Political Junkie म्हणाले...: Nice, Big Mike.; १४/९/२४, १२:४६ PM
Lyle Sanford, RMT म्हणाले...: very nice combo!; १४/९/२४, २:३८ PM
gadfly म्हणाले...: Political Junkie must hail from goat-roper country where the TexAgs tell us that Tea-sip (or t-sip) is a student of Texas A&M's archrival, The University of Texas at Austin. The term is intended to be derogatory (the origin being that while Aggies were off fighting wars, students of UT Austin were "sipping tea" at home). But the Longhorns and Aggies have not played against one another in football since 2011 - so they are no longer rivals. It is coincidental, I suppose, that the series ended after more than 100 years when Johnny Football showed up at A&M as a red-shirt freshman.; १५/९/२४, १:२५ AM
Political Junkie म्हणाले...: Gadfly - Wrong on several points. But after all, you are "gadfly".; १५/९/२४, १०:१० AM
