The Iowa State Patrol says two 2009 Sterling Acterra truck’s were on the shoulder of Interstate 80 westbound about a mile and three-quarters east of the Elk Horn (Highway 173) exit, because one of the trucks had broken down. A 2013 Freightliner semi pulling tandem Fed-Ex trailers and driven by 58-year old Stevan Stojanovic, of Rockford, IL, was traveling west at around 3:30-p.m., when Stojanovic lost control and struck the other two, parked trucks.

Following the collision, the semi crossed both westbound lanes of traffic and entered the median before it tipped over onto its right side in the right, eastbound lane. The front trailer came to rest on its top in the median, while the rear trailer came to rest on its side, also in the median.

No citations were issued.
