    While on scene, County 10 observed law enforcement and emergency responders work to get the driver out of the cement truck. We were not there when the driver was removed from the truck. However, Wyoming Highway Patrol (WHP) confirmed, “the driver was injured, but not life-threatening injuries.”[/et_pb_text][et_pb_code admin_label=”Ad Code” _builder_version=”3.26″ text_orientation=”center”]

While on scene law enforcement said, “it would be a couple of hours” for the highway to open back up. The exact length of time it was closed has not been confirmed.

    WHP shares information around the cause:

    “For unknown reasons, the driver went off the road to the right. Over corrected to the left causing the truck to roll onto its side. It slid across the road into the westbound lane of travel before coming to a rest. The cement truck was not loaded.”

    No other information was provided.[/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”3.26″][/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.27.4″]
