Christmas Tree Truck Crashes Closing Interstate Ramp
By The Associated Press
"WEST DES MOINES, Iowa -- A jolly delivery turned Grinchy for early-morning travelers in West Des Moines on Monday.
A tractor-trailer loaded with Christmas trees skidded out of control and slid off the highway west of Des Moines, closing a ramp on Interstate 80. Police said the trailer was on the exit ramp to Interstate 80/35 about 3 a.m. when it began sliding on the rain-slickened highway. The trailer began to fishtail and rolled with its load of trees.
The ramp was closed until about 5:30 a.m.
The driver and a passenger of the tractor-trailer suffered minor injuries. Their names were not immediately released, nor was the truck's destination."
