A tractor-trailer gets stuck under a railroad overpass in York County on Monday morning. Police responded to the Norfolk Southern Railroad overpass along Woodland View Drive in Manchester Township just after 11:30 a.m.
A big-rig hauling a 53-foot trailer was headed westbound when it got stuck underneath the concrete bridge. Police say the tractor-trailer was more than 2-feet over the posted height clearance sign.
The driver, Nykil Rashad, 30, of Jonesboro, GA, failed to realize his rig was too tall before it became stuck.
The tractor-trailer is owned by Interstate Distributor Company of Tacoma, Washington and was en-route to a business in the industrial park, police said.
No injuries were reported.
The road was closed for several hours as the rig was removed. It has since been reopened.

Idiot blamed it on GPS. This isn't the first time. How can people be so stupid? Of course, NYKIL? I'm guessing his origin may have been a factor.
