Police: Driver cited in GA circus trailer accident
SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — Authorities in Savannah say a truck
driver has been cited after a trailer containing eight circus animals
became unhitched on a highway.
Authorities said late Monday that
Michael K. Ramos of Riverview, Fla., was charged with driving too fast
for conditions, failing to maintain his lane and having an improper
class license after the accident on Interstate 516.
Police say
Ramos hit a sign, which dislodged the trailer containing animals
performing in the UniverSoul Circus. Police said medics treated two
llamas for minor nose and foot injuries.
The eastbound lanes of
the highway were closed for more than five hours after the 4 p.m.
accident between the exit and entrance ramps to Veterans Parkway.
Firefighters helped transfer the llamas, two zebras, two ponies and two camels to another trailer.
