Police say both trucks left the road and the box truck overturned in the median. The driver was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The driver of the semi truck, a 43-year-old Ada man, was not injured.

The highway was briefly shut down to remove the trucks.

This crash remains under investigation.
