According to KFOR News, the semi truck was traveling along I-44 near Pennsylvania Avenue when another vehicle cut the trucker off. The driver swerved in response and the rig ended up hanging halfway off of the interstate with the truck cab dangling. 

The truck driver and his child were able to escape without injury with the help of first responders with a boom truck.
