FedEx Trailer Overturned

A FedEx tractor trailer flipped and overturned Monday morning on Interstate 287 in Mahwah, New Jersey, spilling dozens of packages on the company's busiest day for deliveries.

One of two tandem trailers overturned at about 3:45 a.m., spilling boxes onto the highway. The driver suffered minor injuries.

Authorities say the driver lost control and the rig flipped on the ramp from northbound routes 287 and 17 to southbound 287 and 17.

Exit 66 on Interstate 287 was closed for over six hours and traffic was detoured into New York State.

Police say the highway reopened at 10:05 a.m.
