SUMMARY OF CRASH:
On the above date and time, the Vermont State Police responded for a single vehicle crash on Interstate 89 North at mile marker 48.2 in Berlin. The involved vehicle was a Ford F-250 towing a twenty-four-foot travel trailer. The travel trailer had overturned and was blocking both north bound lanes. The operator of the vehicle was identified as Donovan McDunnah, 25 of Barre, VT. Investigation determined McDunnah was driving well below Interstate speeds when the travel trailer began to swing wildly due to an issue with weight distribution. McDunnah was unable to regain control of the travel trailer and it overturned. Interstate 89 north bound was shut down while the crash was investigated and cleaned up. Vermont State Police were assisted on scene by members of the Berlin Fire Department, Barre Town Ambulance and VTrans.
