Dump truck tips over in northwest Calgary
A dump truck tipped over in northwest Calgary Saturday afternoon.
Three people were taken to hospital as a precaution after a dump truck tipped over in the northwest Saturday.
It happened at the intersection of Nolan Hill Drive and Symons Valley Parkway around 1:20 p.m.
The dump truck failed to negotiate a corner, hit a traffic light pole and tipped over, spilling its load on the road.
Everyone was OK.
The area was closed to traffic for a few hours, so crews could right the truck, tow it away and clean up the mess.
