A North Highlands truck driver has died after a wreck on Interstate 80 in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.
According to state police, Victor Lysyuk, 60, of North Highlands, California, died after his rig crashed Saturday morning in Dennison Township, near mile marker 267 where he lost control, drove off an embankment, and rolled several times. He was thrown from the cab and died at the scene.
Just one month ago, another North Highlands big rig driver was arrested in Oregon and is facing charges of manslaughter, and driving under the influence (DUI). That incident occurred when a semi-truck collided with a passenger van, causing the deaths of seven individuals. It is considered one of the deadliest in Oregon in recent years.
