Accident Causes Box Truck to Flip Over, Fall into Embankment on Shady Grove Road

An accident has closed parts of Shady Grove Road and the ramp to the ICC near Crabbs Branch Way this morning.

A box truck carrying paper supplies and another vehicle were involved in the accident, which caused the box truck to fall into an embankment and flip over.

The driver of the box truck was extricated via slope rescue (ropes, stokes, and basket) and evacuated with a non-life threatening injury.

The occupant of the other vehicle suffered a traumatic injury.

UPDATE: The sedan driver has unfortunately succumbed to his injuries.
