    Tuesday morning the Vinton Fire Department and the North Benton Ambulance responded to a semi turnover

Tuesday morning, north of Vinton on highway 150, a semi left the road near the Brandon turnoff. 

For an unknown reason, the driver drifted off onto the shoulder, resulting in the semi rolling onto its side and came to rest in the ditch. 

The driver was freed from the vehicle by the Vinton Fire Department and taken to Virginia Gay by North Benton Ambulance for evaluation.
