A Chevy pickup truck overturned in a single-vehicle crash on Highway 24-27 near Bethlehem Church Road in Carthage, but officials say no one was injured.

Investigators said the driver lost control of the truck, which ran off the road and flipped. The impact crushed the top of the cab, though emergency crews reported the driver was able to walk away without injuries.

Authorities believe alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
