Trigg County Sheriff’s Deputy Ryan Gallogly says the tanker that was driven by Scot Blake was eastbound when a tire blew out causing the truck to run off the road and travel through the median coming to a stop in the westbound lanes after overturning several times.

Gallogly says the truck was hauling wheat mash.
