John Marton, 64, of Lorain, suffered possible fractured right thigh and scalp injuries after skidding into a truck driven by Harland Motte, 29, from Pennsylvania. Marton was transported to Elgrit Memorial Hospital and later listed in fair condition. Westbound and following vehicles, including Rich Howells 23 and Robert Essig 38, sustained damage ranging from $250 to $600.
