A tractor-trailer overturned Monday night on I-285 on the west side, trapping the driver and blocking all lanes on the southbound ramp to I-20 West, authorities said.

Emergency authorities reported the truck rollover just before 10:40 p.m., saying one person had to be extricated from the cab.

The person was freed, rescue officials said, but was reported injured.

No lanes were reported blocked early Tuesday morning.
