Gravel truck overturns in East Troy

A gravel truck overturned in East Troy on Wednesday morning, June 2.

The ramp from Highway 120 to northbound I-43 in Walworth County was closed Wednesday morning, June 2 due to an overturned dump truck. 

The wreck happened shortly after 8 a.m. Wednesday. The initial investigation shows the driver appeared to have been going too fast for making the right turn from northbound Highway 120 to the northbound on-ramp to I-43. 

During the turn, officials say the load of sand in the truck shifted. The truck rolled over, spilling sand onto the roadway.
