She also said her landlady

Two crashes slow
traffic along I-19
Two separate crashes
about 50 feet apart Thursday morning tied up the
West Frontage Road south
of Canoa Road.
The first involved a garbage truck that rolled about
7:15 a.m. on the West Frontage Road between Canoa and
Arivaca roads. The truck was
northbound when, according to the driver, the steering
wheel began to shake and he
headed off the road, overcorrected and the truck rolled
onto its side, blocking the
northbound lane for about
90 minutes, according to the
Department of Public Safety.
A small amount of trash
spilled onto the roadway.
The driver was not injured
but was cited for failure to
control a vehicle to avoid a
collision and expired registration, according to DPS.
The second crash occurred about 7:30 a.m.
about 50 feet away along
southbound Interstate 19.
A driver sideswiped another vehicle after he saw
the overturned garbage
truck and switched lanes to
stop and help. Nobody was
injured and the driver was
cited for unsafe lane usage.
Man sought
after altercation
Green Valley man suspected of assaulting two men
at a restaurant Saturday afternoon is wanted by Pima
County Sheriff’s Department.
A deputy found the car
that witnesses said the man
was driving as he left the
eatery off Continental Road
shortly after 3:30 p.m.
A vehicle matching its
description was found in
the parking lot of a Green
Valley apartment complex
about three miles north
but no one answered at the
unit where the suspect is
believed to reside, the sheriff ’s report stated.
The two men reportedly
struck in the face by the man
are acquainted with the suspect, who is a former employee at the restaurant. He
may have been angry over a
longstanding conflict with
one of the men and with
management because his
wife, an employee, recently
had her responsibilities cut
back, according to the report.
After interviews with
three witnesses, a deputy
determined probable cause
to arrest the suspect on
suspicion of assault (two
counts) and disorderly
conduct (three counts).
No serious injuries resulting from the incident were
apparent, the report noted.
