An Alabama man was injured Thursday morning when the semi he was driving ran off the road and rolled over.
Illinois State Police said 33-year-old Chance Morris was driving on the I-24 westbound ramp to I-57 in Williamson County at around 2 a.m. when he lost control of the tanker truck and overturned.
Morris was taken to a hospital with non life-threatening injuries. The contents of the truck's tank began to leak after the crash, and a hazmat team was called in to contain the spill.
Police said charges against Morris are pending.
