Four Wreckers Used In Poudre Canyon Recovery of a Concrete Truck
Last week, a concrete truck veered off the road at the Narrows on Highway 14 in Poudre Canyon. Thankfully, the driver of the concrete truck was able to get out of the cab of the truck.
Larimer County Sheriff's Office Emergency Services were dispatched to assist with Poudre Canyon Fire. When Officials arrived on the scene, the driver was transported to a local hospital for treatment.

The recovery efforts of the concrete truck were underway utilizing four heavy wreckers from private companies to pull the truck from the banks of the river. Hazmat teams from the Poudre Fire Authority and Colorado State Patrol were called in to protect the river during the recovery efforts.
The successful recovery of the concrete truck and the 30,000-pound load took a total of 13 hours. Facebook users reacted to the photos on the Larimer County Sheriff's Office Facebook page.https://www.facebook.com/larimersheriff/posts/4556436024408104
