Crane closes road

A truck crane caused a major traffic backup in Lorena, to the south of Waco, Texas, yesterday, closing Interstate 35 while it was recovered.

We are not quite sure what happened, we were told that the crane became stuck and started to overturn in the soft ground. Two large wrecker trucks were called in and we understand that it was finally extracted and the road re-opened.
