SUSQUEHANNA TWP., Dauphin County – A Barnesville man was cited for a crash on I-81 near Harrisburg last Monday.

As his 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee transitioned onto the bridge crossing the Susquehanna River, Holman lost control, striking the center concrete barrier, bouncing off that barrier and crossing three lanes of traffic before coming to a rest on the right-side shoulder.

The vehicle suffered disabling damage to the left-front wheel.
