At around 11:15 a.m. Monday the CHP reported that a semi had overturned onto its side near the Wildwood Campground.
At that time, the driver was reported to still be inside the semi. As of 1 p.m., there was no report of injuries.
The CHP reported that the semi had been partially loaded with scrap metal, most of which was on the roadway after the wreck.
Reports from the scene indicated a tow truck had been requested to assist with removing the truck.
