According to Berkshire District Attorney’s Office Chief Operating Officer Julia Sabourin, the accident took place at approximately 9 a.m. at 1322 South Main Road.
When officers arrived at the scene they found two tractor trailers, one in the northbound lane, and one in the southbound lane, lodged in a snowbank.
