Semi filled with dirt flips on busy Bundaberg street

MULTIPLE crews tended to the intersection of Princess and Cross Sts at East Bundaberg after a semi-trailer carrying dirt flipped.

A spokeswoman for the Queensland Police Service said the incident was reported at about 5.45 tonight.

She said the driver had not been injured and had managed to remove himself from the truck.
