HARRISON, WESTCHESTER COUNTY – New York State Police said a tractor-trailer driver died following an accident in Westchester County last week.
In a news release, police identified the victim as 42-year-old Nathan L. Montalvo of Guilford, Connecticut.
Investigators said Montalvo was driving a tractor-trailer on Interstate 287 in the town of Harrison on Wednesday when the crash took place at about 10:20 a.m. Montalvo lost control of the vehicle while on the Exit 9A ramp from I-287 to I-684 north. The truck flipped over the guardrail and landed on the westbound lanes of I-287.
Montalvo suffered fatal injuries, while the driver of a vehicle on I-287 was injured. That driver, 37-year-old Aris Guerrero was taken to Westchester Medical Center for treatment.
All westbound lanes of I-287 were shut down at Exit 9, and the left lane was closed eastbound as drivers were urged to avoid the area and seek alternate routes.
