An 82-year-old Syracuse man was injured when a tractor and semi collided on U.S. 6 near County Road 43, about two miles outside Syracuse.
Investigators say the tractor was stopped along the eastbound side of U.S. 6 when a semi drove around it. The tractor then turned left toward County Road 43 and was struck by the semi.
The tractor driver was ejected and suffered cuts to his head. He was flown by Samaritan to Parkview Regional Medical Center. The semi driver, a 36-year-old man from Orland, was not reported injured.
