Tanker Rollover in East Salina

No injuries are reported after a tanker truck rolled over at an intersection in east Salina on Thursday morning.

Saline County Sheriff Roger Soldan tells KSAL News that at 2:42 a.m., a truck pulling a tanker coming off of E. Old Highway 40 headed south on Marymount failed to make a turn and rolled over.

Soldan said the truck had major damage and had a slight leak, but none of the 7,500 gallons of diesel fuel from the tanker leaked. The tanker belongs to a locomotive company out of Texas, and they sent a crew to the scene to to start offloading the fuel.

Soldan said Marymount Road south of Old 40 was closed this morning for the clean up.
