ALMA, KS - On Wednesday, the Wabaunsee County Sheriff's Office was dispatched to the area of K-99 just southeast of the Wabaunsee High School practice field on the report of rolled over commercial truck.
A Commercial truck was northbound on K99 when the driver lost control of the vehicle, which caused it to roll onto the passenger side, blocking both lanes of the roadway.
Wabaunsee High School USD 329 SRO(WBSO), Steve Bundy was the first to arrive on scene, followed by Wabaunsee County Undersheriff, Eric Kirsch. Also, responding to the scene were AMR and the Wabaunsee Fire District 6(Alma) .
Undersheriff Kirsch can be seen in the video breaking out the windshield to get the truck driver out of the truck.
According to Kirsch, due to the contents of the truck, along with the fuel, they needed to get the driver out quickly to ensure his safety.
The driver was not injured in the crash and can be heard on the video asking for water immediately after getting out of the truck. K-99 was closed for just over an hour while crews removed the truck from the roadway.
