Unusual Place for Big Rig to Be Stuck in Mud & Gravel

April 24th, 2023 by Joe Burgess

Friday, around 4:30 PM, the driver of this 18 wheeler was traveling east on Highway 35, near Rash Cemetery, when he needed to turn around, after his last stop.

The road around the cemetery, where he was attempting to turn around, had recently been re-graveled, and due to the rain, his plan did not go as expected.

Drew County deputies responded, as well as a large tow truck. No one was injured.
