The online news and the Daily Sun both reported no other vehicles involved. The DS reported the concrete truck was 'mostly filled', so as mentioned previously a high center of gravity. The passenger was able to get out, the driver was tangled in seat belt and had to be cut out through the roof. We went by around 4:30 or so and the truck was still on its side.

I am guessing (big time) but a lot of drivers tend to push the speed limit on Powell, if the truck was going a little too fast I could see a tip over as the result, just my humble opinion.
