A sharply-curving DeKalb County interstate ramp that has claimed numerous trucks over the years snared another this morning when a tractor-trailer loaded with 30,000 pounds of eggs overturned.

The wreck happened before 6 a.m. on the ramp from I-285 southbound to I-20 eastbound.

The ramp was blocked for more than an hour, but reopened to traffic around 7:15 a.m.
