Driver Extricated From Overturned Pepsi Big Rig On 15 Freeway In Fontana

FONTANA (CBSLA) — A driver was hospitalized Wednesday after his Pepsi semi-truck overturned on the 15 Freeway, trapping him inside.

The truck overturned just before 11 a.m. on the northbound side of the freeway near the 210 interchange.

It took San Bernardino County Fire 45 minutes to extricate the driver. He was then airlifted to a hospital.

All lanes of the northbound side of the 15 Freeway were closed while crews worked but have since reopened.

No one else was said to have been injured in the accident.
