-Miami — On May 18, Miami police officers responded to US Highway 60 and Reppy Avenue in reference to several 911 calls of a tractor trailer colliding with multiple vehicles.

Officers arrived to find five vehicles involved. A utility pole had been knocked down, and one of the vehicles was still lodged between the tractor trailer and a concrete curb. A second vehicle had been struck and forced across the highway, subsequently stopping in a residential front yard.

Two separate vehicles were damaged and were properly parked and unoccupied at the time of the collision. The driver of the 18-wheeler admitted to losing control of his vehicle, causing the chain of events. There were no injuries reported. Viktor Ustinovich was detained and cited for the violations.
