Archived: Driver Trapped After Tractor Trailer Rolls Over On County Road 186

A tractor trailer carrying milk flipped over and trapped the driver in the wreckage on Saturday night.

The Stearns County Sheriff’s Office says they received a call about a crash around 8:30 p.m. The crash took place on County Road 186 about two and a half miles west of Melrose.

The tractor trailer had left the road and started rolling as it entered a ditch. The tractor cab had been crushed and 22-year-old Jesse Martin was trapped inside. The Melrose Fire Department was able to free Martin from the destroyed tractor cab. Most of the milk being transported was lost in the crash.

Martin was airlifted to St. Cloud Hospital with serious injuries.
