Crews remain on the scene of a rolled tanker on I-70 in Putnam County

It was a busy Monday afternoon for the Cloverdale Township Volunteer Fire Department, as they spent a chunk of the day along I-70 responding to a major crash involving a tanker truck with flammable liquid. The tanker was the only vehicle involved.

 

According to officials with the fire department, Engine 75 and Engine 77 responded, along with Medic 5, the Indiana State Police and INDOT to a call of a tanker that had rolled over. There were no injuries, but crews remain on the scene while the wrecker attempts to upright the tanker, which is filled with flammable liquid.

 

“The right lane is still closed and will remain closed until we get the tanker turned over. People should seek an alternate route for at least the next 30-60 minutes,” Lt. S. Caulkins told the Putnam County Post.
