Lost & Found Big Rig
May 17th, 2024 by Joe BurgessThursday, at approximately 11 AM, on W. Gaines St., in front of Monticello Exxon, it appears the driver of this apparently loaded grain truck broke down and was abandoned by the driver, blocking traffic.
DCSO and MPD attempted to locate the driver, and by noon, Big Wrecker arrived to towed the vehicle and clear the highway.
Monticello dispatch attempted to locate a contact number to notify the owner, but this did not end successfully, leading to tow truck being called. The driver was located, later in the day.
