Indiana State Police were forced to close two of the three southbound lanes of I-65 just north of Southport Road after a tanker hauling 8,500 gallons of gasoline flipped over and landed upside down. State Troopers at the scene reported that gasoline was knee deep in the ditch where the semi trailer and tractor came to rest.
The driver of the rig, 73-year-old Loren Hooten of North Vernon, Indiana, told police that he didn't know what happened. He was reportedly driving southbound on Interstate 65 south of Indianapolis when the tractor and trailer was sent to the shoulder and went off into the ditch.
