On August 31 at 6:23 a.m., the Proctor Police Department responded to a single-vehicle rollover on Hwy 2 near 3rd Street in Proctor. It was determined a semi-truck traveling eastbound on Hwy 2 failed to negotiate a curve, rolled over and came to rest in a business parking lot. The driver of the semi suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was transported by Mayo to the hospital. No other vehicles were involved. Impairment of alcohol or drugs is not suspected; however, speed appears to be a contributing factor. Our thanks to the Hermantown Police Department, St. Louis County Sheriff’s Department, St. Louis County Rescue Squad and Minnesota State Patrol for responding and assisting with this incident.
