TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Officials say traffic is slowed on U.S. 75 in Tulsa after a truck overturned on the highway, spilling dozens of logs.

The truck was hauling logs when it flipped over early Wednesday. Police say the truck's driver fell asleep while driving near 41st Street and lost control of his rig.

Authorities say the truck landed in the median. The driver wasn't injured.

The inside lanes of U.S. 75 are closed while crews remove the logs and the truck.
