I-75 back open after rockslide caused crash

CORBIN, Ky. (WKYT) - A section of Interstate 75 is back open after a rockslide caused a semi to crash.

State police say the driver of the semi swerved to miss the boulder, which caused the truck to overturn near exit 25 in Whitley County around 10:00 Sunday night.

The driver of the semi was taken to a hospital with minor injuries and was the only one hurt.

Crews were on the scene until about 4:00 Monday morning cleaning up the mess.

The truck's contents spilled onto the southbound lanes. They had to be loaded by hand onto a new truck.
