People driving their morning commute along part of Interstate 80 in Liberty may have wondered why there first responders were along the side of the highway with their emergency lights flashing.

Dispatchers say the Ohio State Highway Patrol is investigating after a semi-tractor trailer slid off the westbound side of the interstate just before the Belmont Avenue exit at around 4 a.m. Friday.

The driver was climbing out of the truck's cab as troopers arrived.

Troopers were checking to make sure no fuel was leaking from the truck.

Although one lane was closed while the truck was being removed, traffic was moving in the area.
