(BORDEN) - A Milltown man was injured when his dump truck overturned at the corner of Martinsburg and Borden Greenville Roads, earlier Thursday afternoon.
William Walker, was driving a dump truck owned by Triple "S" Professionals LLC of Milltown, down Martinsburg road, loaded down with burnt house scraps.
According to Clark County Sheriff's Major Chuck Adams, Walker told police couldn't stop because he was weighted down.
Adams said Walker cut right and ended up flipping the dump truck on its drivers side coming to rest in a ditch in front of 20545 Martinsburg Rd. and lost the load in the front yard.
Walker was trapped under the dash and had to be cut out.
Furnish Towing helped in the extrication by lifting the truck up bit. Borden Fire responded to the scene as well as the Pierce-Polk Fire Department.
Walker was taken by air ambulance to the University of Louisville with possible left arm injuries as well as leg injuries, although the driver was alert and was able to respond to police.
