Truck Spills Watermelons, Shuts Down Road

A deadly accident leads to a big mess just over the Kentucky border in Cincinnati.

A semi truck hauling watermelons ran into a concrete pillar and then overturned on the northbound I-75 ramp to westbound I-74.

There are reports that the driver was pinned under the truck.

The ramp was closed for much of the day on Thursday.

In addition to the spilled fruit, crews had to work to clean up some fuel spilled by the big rig.
