DELAWARE COUNTY — High wind gusts Sunday morning caused a semi-truck and trailer to flip over on Interstate-69 in Delaware County.

An out-of-state driver suffered minor leg injuries when his semi-truck flipped over, Delaware County Sheriff Chief Deputy Jeff Stanley said. The driver was transported to IU Health Ball Memorial Hospital.

The truck flipped over because of the high wind gusts near 1-2 miles of open fields by the 245 mile marker, Stanley said.

The accident was investigated by the sheriff's office.
