7/21/11 - Windsor Twp dump truck rollover, 11018 Bishop Rd

Windsor Township Fire & EMS were dispatched to a report of a dump truck into a house during the noon hour on Thursday, July 21, 2011. A dump truck loaded with sludge was traveling eastbound on Bishop Rd when it experienced a blowout to a front tire. The truck immediately went into a field, striking a mailbox, a utility pole guide wire and two trees before rolling over just short of striking a house. The load of sludge spilled out into the yard and splattered the home. The force of the high speed sludge spilling from the truck damaged the structure and broke out a window, which allowed sludge to enter the home, causing damage to the interior. The driver of the truck received non life threatening injuries and was transported by EMS, no occupants of the home were injured. Firefighters assisted with clean up and hazard control while the truck was uprighted and removed from the scene.
