On March 23, 2017, the Latham Fire Department responded to a truck rollover on Route 7. Colonie Police Lt. James Gerace said that none of the waste oil the truck was carrying spilled, and a diesel fuel leak was handled by HazMat crews. “The driver will be getting a summons from the Town of Colonie Police Department for unsafe speed,” said Gerace, “and then I believe there’s going to be some DEC violations that will be issued as well.” Latham was assisted by Boght and West Albany along with the Ladies Auxiliary.
