A semi driver, who had to be extricated after his truck overturned Tuesday morning in the 22400 block of 84th Avenue South<\/a> in Kent, was cited for second-degree negligent driving.<\/p>\n

The semi was on South 224th Street at about 9:40 a.m. when the driver, a 33-year-old SeaTac man, turned to go south on 84th Avenue South, and the semi tipped over due to driver error, according to a Dec. 16 email from Kent Police Assistant Chief Jarod Kasner.<\/p>\n

“Speed appears to be a factor,” Kasner said.<\/p>\n

Paramedics transported the driver to a local hospital with minor injuries, according to Puget Sound Fire. No other vehicles were involved.<\/p>\n

Kent Police initially closed both directions of 84th Avenue South at South 224th Street. The road reopened just after 12 p.m. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
