MURFREESBORO, TN (WGNS) – Shortly after 8:00 o’clock Wednesday (11/4/2026) evening, an 18-wheeler overturned and temporarily shut down the 600-block of Butler Drive while emergency responders worked to clear the scene and upright the overturned truck. When officers arrived, they discovered a semi-truck resting on its side in a ditch alongside the roadway. Authorities closed Butler Drive in both directions while a wrecker service worked to upright the truck and remove it from the scene. The road closure created temporary traffic disruptions in the area as crews completed the recovery operation.
Murfreesboro Police Public Information Officer Larry Flowers told WGNS News, “The driver of the 18-wheeler was out of the truck and alert”.
Flowers noted, “There were no serious injuries were reported, and the driver was able to exit the vehicle before first responders arrived”…
