In other news, a Batavia man may have been responsible for the collision on the Thruway yesterday morning that kept the westbound lanes near Pembroke blocked off for more than an hour. Alan Shadders, 48, of McKinley Avenue, Batavia, was executing a pass around a tractor trailer when he lost control of his car, causing the truck to jacknife. Shadders had been taken to the hospital for treatment of minor injuries. He was also ticketed with speeding.
