State Police say that one person was seriously injured in a crash that happened Friday afternoon in Sempronious.
Around 2:45 pm a crash was reported to law enforcement between a tractor-trailer and pickup truck at the intersection of Route 41 and Sayles Corners Road.
Troopers say that one driver was taken to Upstate University Hospital with serious injuries — while the other was not injured.
Authorities say Stephen Zelsnack, 48, of Marathon, failed to stop his pickup truck at a stop sign and ran into a tractor trailer driven by Timothy Shattuck, 55, of Savannah. Troopers say he was critically injured in the accident, and remains in critical condition at Upstate University Hospital.
