Leith, of Creston, was traveling north on U-S Highway 169 at around 11:17-pm., near miler marker 37 (south of Lorimor), when Leith swerved to miss a deer. The rig went out of control after the trailer blew a tire. The semi tipped over onto the driver’s side.

When the semi tipped over, it dumped a load of corn onto the roadway. The vehicle came to rest in the east ditch, on the driver’s side. Damage to the semi was estimated at $80,000.
