A HazMat crew was called to the scene of a commercial truck rollover wreck on GA 105/Cannon Bridge Road in Demorest.

Officials tell Now Habersham the construction service truck was carrying grease, oil, hydraulic fluid, and diesel fuel. It overturned shortly before 1 p.m., sending one person to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

The wreck shut down one lane of GA 105 between Cap Fry and Pea Ridge roads. Law enforcement slowed traffic as HazMat crews unloaded the fuel and the tow truck operators cleared the wreckage.
