Oversize crash. According to City of Warren police, a shipping company will be cited for allowing one of its drivers to pick up an oversized load in Warren without a permit after the truck he was driving blew out two tires when it struck and damaged a Penelec utility pole at 11:31 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 9, at the intersection of Market Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. Police said the truck, owned by Jan Packaging Inc. of Dover, N.J., struck the pole after picking up a load at Ellwood National Crankshaft in Warren. The original permit specified Ellwood National Forge in Irvine as the pickup location, police said. The driver, who was not identified, told police he went to Irvine, was told his load was in Warren, contacted his company and was told to proceed into Warren despite the lack of a valid permit for that location.
