Traffic Hazard Reported at Salmon River Road and Highway 96: Semi Hauling Shipping Container Partially Over Edge, Tow Requested

AI SUMMARY: At 4:13 pm, a FedEx employee reported a traffic hazard at Salmon River Road, 7 miles out, involving a semi hauling a shipping container that was partially over the edge. The semi was actually a Dodge 3500, not a semi truck. The California Highway Patrol was requested to start the tow for the 40-foot long truck and trailer hauling a 10x10 shipping container. After some confusion, it was revealed that the trailer got stuck in a ravine and needed help. The tow request was cancelled, but the trailer was still on the scene. At 9:02 pm, the CHP requested to contact Buddy's Towing for assistance with an estimated time of arrival back at the scene.
