KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Westbound K-10 Highway was closed for a period of time Monday morning at Interstate 435 in Lenexa due to an overturned dump truck.

The dump truck, which was carrying rocks, overturned around 9:35 a.m. and spilled the rocks onto the highway, according to Kansas Highway Patrol.

All lanes of westbound K-10 blocked in the area for several hours.

The driver of the dump truck was transported to an area hospital, but there was no information about the driver's possible injuries or condition.

The initial investigation indicates the driver of the dump truck was traveling too fast for the roadway and lost control.
