GROTON, NY (607NewsNow) – State Route 222 is open to traffic again after a crash in McLean.

On January 20, McLean Fire and Rescue was called to the intersection of Lafayette Road and Route 222 around noon for a two-vehicle collision.

A tractor-trailer struck a four-door sedan, but it was unclear who was at fault.
