ALLEGAN COUNTY, Mich. — A semi truck hauling a load of logs struck a bridge over US-131 in Allegan County early Wednesday morning.

The collision happened just before 4:30 a.m. at the 110th Avenue overpass, said the Allegan County Sheriff's Office. The truck was in the northbound lanes, when some of the logs in its load came in contact with the bridge.

Deputies closed one lane of US-131 to allow for the safe clean up of the logs and inspection of the bridge.

Another truck was damaged when it hit at least one log that came to rest on the pavement, said the sheriff's office. No one was hurt in the situation.
