No major injuries in two-semi collision

There were no major injuries reported after a two-semi collision occurred on Wednesday afternoon.

Johannes J. Vanhanster, of a California address, was travelling east on I-80 when his semi-trailer was rear-ended by a semi driven by Matthew D. Finkes of Missouri.

Finkes truck failed to stop when he pressed brakes “hard,” so his truck struck the rear end of Vanhanster’s trailer.

Both parties were wearing their seatbelts. The use of neither drugs nor alcohol was suspected.

Pictures were taken and the investigation was concluded at the scene by responding Officer Adam J. Hollingshead.
