YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) - A semi-truck trying to exit the Interstate 8 freeway flipped on its side Saturday afternoon. The truck tried to turn onto East Eighth Street, but the weight of its trailer may have caused it to flip over.
Inside the trailer was a shipment of romaine lettuce, which could be found all over the scene of the crash. Yuma Police Department then arrived to block any oncoming traffic.
