Emergency crews around 7:15 a.m. responded to a reported dump truck rollover on Mahood Road near the community of Stewart Hall in Otonabee-South Monaghan Township.

Peterborough County OPP on scene told Global News that the dump truck driver claims another vehicle was involved in the collision and that the driver of that vehicle allegedly fled the scene.

The rollover caused soil to be spilled onto the road and into a roadside ditch.

The driver of the truck was assessed by paramedics but was not transported to hospital, OPP said.

Mahood Road west of Wallace Point Road will be temporarily closed for the removal of the vehicle and cleanup.
