HURRICANE, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A truck leaving a distribution center in Putnam County ended up on its side.

Emergency crews at the scene tell WSAZ.com the driver was trying to make a right hand turn on Virginia Avenue when he didn't make it and the trailer hit a bank. The impact caused the truck's rear wheels to lift up off the ground.
The driver was not hurt.
