- An 18-wheeler carrying $800,000 in dimes overturned early Tuesday morning on southbound U.S. 81/287 near Alvord, Texas.
- The crash occurred after the driver veered off the road and overcorrected, causing the truck to roll onto its side and spill coins.
- Millions of loose dimes scattered across the highway forced closure of the southbound lanes near Farm Road 1655 while crews worked to recover coins.
- Officials confirmed the highway reopened around 7 p.m., and the driver and passenger sustained non-life-threatening injuries during the accident.
- The cause of the crash and the reason for transporting so many loose dimes remain unknown, with cleanup efforts requiring extensive manual and mechanical work.
