Big Rig Flips, Ties Up Commute

Minor injuries reported

A truck winds up teetering on a center divide following a wreck on northbound Interstate 15.

It happened just north of state Route 52 during the Thursday afternoon commute.

The California Highway Patrol first received calls of a big rig versus a motorcycle around 4:15 p.m.   The wreck brought traffic to a complete standstill, blocking three lanes of traffic. 

The CHP did not know how long it would take to upend the big rig, but believed the closure would be through the rush hour.   Only minor injuries were reported.

Officials are recommending commuters use northbound state Route 163.
