An Indiana Department of Transportation snow plow truck overturned early this morning in eastern Greene County while clearing icy roadways.

An INDOT owned 2003 Ford Sterling truck with a snow plow and driven by Rickey Laughlin, 58, of Odon, was traveling north on State Road 45 when it overturned near the intersection with Dotson Road about 12:19 a.m., according to a report from Greene County Sheriff's Department Deputy Jeff Brown.

Laughlin was trapped inside the truck from the seatbelt, but had no injuries.

"The truck did loose its load of salt from the rollover, Deputy Brown commented. "There was approximately 2 inches of snow at the time of accident,"

Assisting at the scene was personnel from the Greene County Ambulance Services and Center Township Fire Department.
