Driver ‘miraculously’ uninjured in crash, leaving semi-truck twisted on side of I-35

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - No injuries were reported in a Sunday morning crash that sent a semi-truck off the side of Interstate 35.

According to Kansas City Fire Department Station 10, the call alerting them to the crash came in just before 9 a.m. on May 25.

Continual rainfall throughout the morning left the roadways slick, and a semi-truck driving north on I-35 lost control and slid off the side at Paseo Boulevard. The whole unit crashed into brush and tipped onto its side, blocking a travel lane.

The interstate had to be closed for several hours as tow trucks worked to get the semi upright before removing it in pieces. Hazmat crews were on scene as well.

First responders said that “miraculously,” the driver was not injured in the crash.
