According to an eyewitness, the crash happened between 12:00 a.m. and 1:00 a.m., leaving the truck sprawled across the roadway and obstructing movement on the busy overhead.
Commuters experienced long delays in both directions as emergency and traffic management teams worked through the night to manage the congestion and secure the area. Traffic officials were later seen coordinating efforts to clear the overturned truck and restore normal traffic flow along the Circle overhead. Authorities did not release details on the cause of the accident or confirm whether any injuries were sustained. Cleanup operations continued until traffic gradually returned to normal.
