Paynesville semi truck crash leaves driver hospitalized

A semi truck driver was hospitalized after the vehicle struck a barrier and rolled into a median on Sunday evening in Paynesville. Santos Isahi Guzman Rodriguez, 33, of Willmar was driving a 1999 Freightliner Semi Tractor Trailer just past 7 p.m. Nov. 8 east on Minnesota Highway 23, according to a Minnesota State Patrol report. Police said although the driver was taken to the hospital, his injuries were not life threatening. They do not suspect alcohol is involved in the incident. The Paynesville Fire Department, Stearns County Sheriff’s Office, Belgrade Police Department and Centra Care Ambulance assisted on scene. This is the first crash involving a semi truck this month in MSP’s response district around St. Cloud, although the St. Cloud Times reported four incidents with semi trucks in October. Statewide, however, MSP has responded to seven other crashes involving semis, three of which were one-vehicle incidents like the Paynesville crash. All ended in injuries, although none life-threatening, according to police reports. The incidents took place in MSP’s response districts around Duluth, Brainard, Marshall and Detroit Lakes.
