SAN ANTONIO — The eastbound lanes of I-10 have reopened after being shut down late Thursday night to clear a crash involving an 18-wheeler carrying around 10,000 pounds of tires.
SAPD and SAFD were called out to I-10 eastbound near Foster Road for a rollover around 11 p.m. Thursday.
According to an official at the scene, when officers arrived they found an 18-wheeler flipped over on its side. Officers helped the driver out of the truck; he was not injured. The official at the scene said that at some point the driver lost control and hit the wall causing the truck to flip onto its side.
As a result of the crash, the eastbound lanes of I-10 were shut down as crews worked to clean up the scene.
SAPD officials said that alcohol was not a factor in the crash.
