Kmart Delivery Truck Overturned South of Richardson Grove; One-Way Controlled Traffic on 101
Photo courtesy reader Mike
Highway 101 just south of Richardson Grove is tied up at the moment, after a truck delivering goods to Kmart overturned and spilled cargo onto the road just after 5 a.m.
Traffic was stopped in both directions for almost an hour, though it appears that one lane has been opened and drivers are being ferried through one direction at a time.
CHP dispatch is still calling this a no-injury accident, though earlier this morning there was some talk of a juvenile with possible head injuries. Follow updates from dispatch below.
