TRUSSVILLE, Ala.–A truck with an unbalanced load blocked Chalkville Road Tuesday afternoon around 2 p.m.
According to Kevin Johnson, who said he was the driver of the ACE Tree & Landscaping truck, the truck became unbalanced after its load shifted while attempting to turn right from Skyline Drive onto Chalkville Road.
After the truck began to turn on its side, Johnson said he jumped out of it. The landscapers then began to direct traffic.
Trussville Police then arrived on scene to direct traffic around the blockage before the vehicle was cleared.
As of 2:49 p.m., the truck had been cleared from the road, according to TPD Lt. Clint Riner.
