Emergency crews called to overturned semi at Carson City freeway onramp at Fairview
Carson City emergency crews were called at 9:50 p.m. Thursday night to a crash involving an overturned semi-truck at the northbound Fairview on-ramp of I-580.
The driver of the truck was injured with a compound fracture to his arm, according to dispatch. He was taken to the hospital.
The Nevada Highway Patrol has been called to the scene and will investigate the cause, though it is believed the driver took the turn too fast. The onramp has been closed for thru traffic for at least an hour as of 10:05 p.m., said Carson City Sheriff's Office Sgt. Scott McDaniel.
The crash happened less than an hour after a vehicle rollover on Highway 50 and Airport Road.
