The backstory:

Troopers say both trucks were headed westbound on I-94 near County Road 10 in Oscar Township when they somehow collided, sending a Kenworth semi over the overpass.

Photos posted by troopers show the aftermath of the crash, with the Kenworth semi left folded over on itself on County Road 10. Based on the photos, it appears it was hauling a dual trailer.

The driver of the Kenworth, a 53-year-old Forest Lake man, was transported to Lake Region Hospital but was expected to survive his injuries.

The 21-year-old Henning man driving the other truck involved, a 1996 Freightliner, also suffered minor injuries, troopers said.

The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
