A Student Services Moving and Storage truck became the latest victim of the 14th Street bridge and its unyielding 10-foot clearance. The truck heading westbound on University Avenue was jammed under the bridge around 8:45am Thursday. A woman who answered the phone at Student Services says no one was injured and it’s not the first time the bridge has gotten one of the company’s trucks. She declined to give her name. At least one bright spot for the company and whoever was getting moved: The truck appeared to be empty.
