Cattle truck rollover snarls Thanksgiving traffic on I-70 near Hays

A cattle truck rolled over on Interstate 70 on Thursday, closing the road for a time.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2000 Peterbilt semi driven by Jason Buttenhoff, 45, Chapman, was eastbound on I-70, just west of Yocemento, when the vehicle left the roadway into the median and rolled onto its side.

Buttenhoff was transported to Hays Medical Center for treatment. The KHP reported he was not wearing a seat belt.
