(Cleveland)- A dump truck driver was injured in an accident Thursday afternoon around 1 pm when he lost control of his truck on Highway 115 west of Cleveland and overturned dumping a load of gravel onto the roadway.
The accident occurred just after 1 pm at the intersection of Highway 115 west and Town Creek Road. The dump truck was traveling east on Highway 115 when apparently the driver, for an unknown reason, ran off the right shoulder of the road struck a couple of road signs.
As the driver attempted to get back on the road the truck flipped over spilling the full load of gravel. The driver was injured and had to be extricated from the vehicle. He was then transported to the hospital for treatment of his injuries.
