CORNING, N.Y. — An Olean man who was involved in an accident on Interstate 86 in Corning this past weekend got some congressional intervention.

Scott Ervay was eastbound on Interstate 86 on his way to Arnott Mall in Corning for some Christmas shopping when his pickup truck hit an icy patch on a bridge near Route 15 shortly after 9 a.m. Sunday. The truck rolled over once and ended up in the median - totaled.

An emergency medical technician who happened to be driving by saw the accident and pulled over in a turnaround a short distance away where he saw a state trooper in his patrol car.
