Woman stranded on turnpike ends in delay and dispute
Mrs. Terry Shean of Norwalk and her five year old daughter waited ten hours beside their disabled car on the Ohio Turnpike after a belt break. Patrol troopers aided but a McCoy's tow driver charged 40 dollars for towing and 20 to 25 for repairs. Shean, upset, contacted the Turnpike Commission while officials investigate. The incident raises questions about service and pricing near the 144.1 mile post.
