Crop-Duster Crashes On York I-80 Overpass

POSTED: 10:23 am CDT July 16, 2004
UPDATED: 10:56 am CDT July 16, 2004

YORK, Neb. -- A crop-duster plane has crashed on the Interstate 80 overpass at York, blocking traffic north- and southbound on the overpass.

Nebraska State Patrol spokeswoman Deb Collins said early reports indicate the pilot was taken to an area hospital in critical condition. Some travelers from Chicago were able to pull the pilot out of the plane.

Collins said the patrol is aiding with traffic control and has dispatched a hazardous materials team to the scene of the 9 a.m. Friday crash. Collins said the plane reportedly had some chemical spill but it was not yet known what type or quantity was involved.

The eastbound on and off ramps are closed at the interchange but I-80 traffic has not been halted.
