Truck hits Chas. prison van swerving to avoid ladder

(Charleston-AP) July 1, 2006 - Ten prisoners being taken from the Charleston County jail to court were injured when the van they were riding in was rear-ended by a truck on Interstate 26.

Charleston County sheriff's Captain John Clark says none of the injuries from Friday's accident were life-threatening.

The wreck happened when the prisoner van tried to swerve to avoid a ladder lying in the road and was hit from behind by a flatbed truck.

The wreck is being investigated by the South Carolina Highway Patrol.
