Diesel fuel leak contained after semi rollover

Posted: Updated:

The Berdan exit off I-75 is back open after a semi tipped on its side Tuesday morning.

According to Toledo Fire, the driver actually averted a bigger accident. They say he was traveling northbound on I-75 when he realized traffic had stopped.

The driver told police, instead of hitting the car in front of him, he turned onto the off-ramp, and that caused the truck to flip.

Crews worked to contain about 200 gallons of gas that spilled.

The truck driver was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
