Photos: Truck overturns on Spur Tree Hill main road

An

overturned truck that was carrying cooking oil on the Spur Tree Hill main road early Thursday, caused major inconvenience for motorists as the road was blocked for several hours. The heavily laden truck was descending the steep Spur Tree Hill main road, which links the south central town of Mandeville to points west — including Santa Cruz, Savanna-la-Mar, Negril, and Montego Bay — when the vehicle reportedly hit a Toyota pickup, then overturned. The driver of the pickup was reportedly taken to hospital as a precautionary measure.
