Grain truck driver Paul Connor, 71, of Middlebury, told police he was headed down the hill on 2A toward Interstate 89 when he lost his brakes. In order to avoid traffic stopped at the light ahead, he tried to turn right onto the southbound Exit 12 on-ramp. The truck rolled over on its side, spilling some of the grain.
