Sleepy Truck Driver Crashes Into Marijuana Dispensary In Detroit

DETROIT (WWJ) -- A semi truck has crashed into a marijuana dispensary on the east side of Detroit.

The semi truck slammed into the front of King Seaweed on 8 Mile Road just west of Ryan Road Monday night.

Crews at the scene Tuesday morning tell WWJ's Mike Campbell that a semi-truck driver apparently fell asleep while traveling eastbound on 8 Mile and smashed into the front of the brick building, which was closed at the time.

The driver had to be rescued from his vehicle. He was taken to the hospital for treatment.

No further injuries were reported.

The incident remains under investigation.
