The driver of this trailer-truck escaped injury at 9:15 a.m. on Thursday, December 26th, when it crashed thorough the guard rails of the: Ohio River Boulevard and tumbled down the embankment on to the west-bound passenger tracks of the Pennsylvania Railroad, opposite the Cool-Breeze Service Station in Haysville.
-• Chief Paul Cernansky of Glenfield, who also takes care of police , work in Haysvilie, called Sewickley police headquarters and Chief Thomas Frendergast phoned the Pennsylvania Railroad in Pittsburgh and the Leetsdale tower to stop any trains from using that track.
Tow trucks were palled, but it took until 6 o’clock that night to^get the big rig back on the boulevard. Meanwhile, Chief Wade Baltz of Osborne, -Squire Steve Balcerek of Haysville and Chief Cernansky directed traffic on the boulevard. Sergeant Bertil Neely of the Sewickley police force and other officers of various police forces in the neighborhood stopped and offered their services but the three local men were able to* handle the traffic satisfactorily.
Since the boroughs on this side of die river have the' same radio frequency in their car radios, help can be summoned quickly, or officers needed elsewhere can be notified without^ delay*
