(Sibley)—A Spencer man was injured Thursday when a semi he was driving collided with a tree in Osceola county.
The Osceola County Sheriff’s Office says 25-year-old Dustin Taylor of Spencer was driving a 1998 Volvo semi eastbound on Highway 9 when he crested a hill and noticed a westbound semi in his lane. Taylor slammed on the brakes and swerved into the right ditch to avoid a collision. His rig then collided with a tree. The driver of the other semi continued on.
Taylor was transported by ambulance to the Osceola Community Hospital with minor injuries.
Authorities are still looking for the other semi.
The incident took place shortly after 5:00 p.m. Thursday about an eighth of a mile west of Skyline Avenue on Highway 9 in Osceola county.
