The 18-wheeler came to rest across all three southbound lanes of the freeway just south of the 500 East exit in American Fork about 8 p.m. The driver suffered only minor injuries, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.Authorities closed the freeway until after 10 p.m. to remove spilled diesel fuel, debris and the mangled truck. The closure clogged alternate routes in American Fork and surrounding cities.
