Fertilize Truck Overturns on Florence Road, Rescue, EMTs, Police Respond – Update
March 7th, 2012 by Joe Burgess
The driver of a Bayou Grain 18-wheeler fertilize delivery truck apparently took a curve on Florence Road too fast, around 10 o’clock, Tuesday morning, resulting in a hopper trailer of farm fertilize being dumped into a road ditch.
The driver was extricated from the crushed cab of the vehicle by the Fire & Rescue Team, and them transported to the JRMC trauma center. Someone at the scene said his injuries didn’t appear to be life threatening.
Triple A Towing is shown in the video, setting the truck upright.
A “bobcat” was cleaning up the spilled product, as evening was approaching, along with several individuals with buckets, collecting fertilize for their personal use. Contact Ronnie Adcock at 723-2260 for info.
