Independence Township firefighters inspect the scene of a tractor-semitrailer rollover on I-75 just north of M-15 on Monday. Just before 5 p.m., the southbound driver apparently lost control of his rig, which went into the median and rolled over into the northbound lanes. Attempts to obtain official details from the Michigan State Police were unsuccessful. Fire Captain Mike Fahrner said the driver, a 43-year-old Roseville man, suffered minor injuries and was taken to POH Medical Center-Clarkston primarily for observation. The truck leaked about 70 gallons of diesel fuel, Fahrner said. Firefighters did not clear the scene until about 9 p.m., and cleanup crews caused northbound traffic to be slowed even later into the evening.
