PELHAM, AL - Pelham police officers are working a wreck involving an overturned 18-wheeler on Highway 119 at the I-65 Southbound exit ramp. The wreck has backed up traffic on 119 Thursday morning.

A report by the Pelham PD said the truck was loaded with mulch, so clean-up "could take some time, and then the truck must be turned upright. Please find an alternate route, if possible."
