STOCKHOLM – A two-vehicle accident in the town of Stockholm Wednesday afternoon has killed a Nicholville man.

St. Lawrence County Coroner June Wood, at the scene, pronounced 28-year-old Mose N. Schlabach deceased and authorized the removal of the body from the vehicle to Canton-Potsdam Hospital, according to state police.

The collision occurred at the intersection of US Rt. 11 and County Rt. 49 at about 3:30 p.m., troopers said

Troopers say a 2009 Dodge Caravan operated by Jerome L. Wilber, 65, of Nicholville, was facing north on County Route 49, stopped at the intersection with U.S. Route 11. Wilber proceeded into the intersection and failed to observe a 2015 Volvo tractor attached to a loaded 53 foot utility trailer traveling westbound on Route 11, operated by Andrei Zhuk, 31, of Brooklyn. The tractor trailer struck Wilber’s vehicle on the passenger side, according to state police.

Wilber was transported to the Canton-Potsdam Hospital for abdominal pain. Zhuk was not injured.

Schlabach was the front seat passenger in Wilber’s vehicle.

There has been no word on any charges in the crash.
