Dump Truck Driver Killed in I-10 Rollover at Jackrabbit Trail

A suspected tire blowout caused the early‑morning rollover that left the off‑ramp closed and piled sand on the roadway, delaying commuters as crews and investigators work the scene.

Overview

  • Troopers responded to the rollover on the eastbound I-10 off‑ramp at Jackrabbit Trail around 5:30 a.m. on Thursday, June 25, when a large dump/box truck left the roadway and overturned.
  • First responders pronounced the truck driver dead at the scene and authorities have not released the driver’s identity pending notifications.
  • The Arizona Department of Public Safety says a tire blowout may have led to the driver losing control and rolling the truck while it was hauling a load of sand.
  • The off‑ramp remains closed as crews clear sand and debris and DPS troopers conduct an active investigation, with the crash creating significant eastbound backups during the morning commute.
  • The crash adds to recent serious incidents on the I‑10 corridor and officials say further updates will follow after investigators complete on‑scene work and next‑of‑kin are notified.
