Scott, LA — June 3, 2023, a truck driver was injured in a single-vehicle truck accident around 8:41 a.m. on I-10 near mile marker 97 in Scott.
Sources report the semi-truck was hauling an empty tanker traveling east on the highway when for some reported reason it veered off the road toward the passenger side and collided with a tree line. The truck’s two saddle gas tanks then purportedly began leaking.
The truck driver reportedly suffered minor injuries and the Lafayette hazmat crew was called to clean up the diesel spill.
Reports indicate authorities have not determined the cause of the crash.
