St. Cloud Truck Driver Involved in Crash in Wisconsin

EAU CLAIRE -- A semi driver from St. Cloud was able to walk away from a crash that happened on an interstate in Wisconsin during a snowstorm.

The Wisconsin State Patrol says it happened at about 7:00 a.m. on Friday on Interstate 94 near Eau Claire.

Twenty-nine-year-old Mahamed Abdilahi was going west when he lost control, slid into the median and down a hill where the semi struck a pillar of the eastbound I-94 bridge that passes over State Highway 37.

Abdilahi was not hurt in the crash and the semi unit was towed from the scene.
