A Warren Township truck accident that had caused some local concern was not serious, according to a local fire chief.
Warren Township Fire Chief Vince Neville reported that in early January, a truck was hauling at least one portable generator on LeRaysville Road at the base of Manchester/Dimon Hill, near the Warren/Pike townships line when a hitch broke. The load tipped onto its side.
"It caused a little damage," to grass and other property, Neville noted.
Nothing was spilled from the load, except for a bit of diesel fuel, which firefighters collected with Speedy Dry and put onto the truck to be sent back to the company that owned it. Neville believed the company is in New York state.
Some area residents apparently had been concerned a larger spill of fluids related to the natural gas drilling industry had occurred. Neville stated there was no spill like that.
The driver was not hurt, and Neville did not have his name. DEP did not have to be called. The state police responded to the scene but did not have a report on the accident.
