Batesville Police say the semi driver, 32-year-old Benjamin Williams, was southbound on 229 when he tried to grab a water bottle and failed to make a left turn before driving off the side of the road. His semi went into a ditch and collided with a number of trees, but Williams – who is from Wisconsin – escaped injury. The accident closed 229 from Huntersville Road to Mulberry Street while the semi and trailer were removed from the woods.
