Traffic diverted along I-30 following morning wreck

By Scott Harvey

Hunt County – Crews in Hunt County were continuing to clean up parts of I-30 Monday morning after an 18 wheeler ran off the road, slammed into a power pole and erupted into flames.

A passerby reportedly pulled the driver from the vehicle. An ambulance then transported the man to Hunt Regional Medical Center with what were described as minimal injuries.

Westbound I-30 traffic was being diverted to the service road at FM 1570.
