WILLIAMSON COUNTY — A semi driver from Wisconsin suffered minor injuries in an early Monday morning crash on northbound Interstate 57 in Williamson County.

Illinois State Police say around 2:10 a.m., 46-year-old Andrea R. Williams was driving north through the construction zone on I-57 near milepost 49.5 when her semi left the roadway to the right and overturned onto its side.

Williams was trapped and had to be extricated by Lake of Egypt Fire Department. She was taken to a local hospital for treatment of minor injuries.

Williams was cited for improper lane usage.

A few hours earlier and less than two miles away, another semi crashed on I-57 in Williamson County.

Preliminary reports say happened just after 11:30 Sunday night 56-year-old James R. Shelton, of Lynnville, Tennessee, was driving north through the construction zone on I-57 at milepost 51 when Shelton believed a mechanical issue caused the trailer to start pulling to the right. The semi left the roadway to the right hitting a tree with its right front corner.

ISP says no charges have been filed against Shelton at this time.

The two wrecks resulted in that section of the interstate being closed Monday for the removal of the semis.
