COALVILLE, Utah (ABC 4 News) - A Semi truck hauling a cattle trailer flipped over on I-80 Wednesday afternoon, causing the closure of some westbound lanes.

According to Cameron Roden of the Utah HIghway Patrol, the truck spun around and flipped over with several cattle inside at mile marker 171 near Coalville.

Roden sais only one of the calves got loose, while the rest remained inside the trailer as crews worked to rescue them.

Another trailer was on its way to the scene to help transport the surviving cattle away.

The driver was not seriously hurt.
