Essen (dpa / lnw) - When unloading 25 cubic meters of gravel, a semi-trailer tipped over on Monday on a construction site in Essen.

The entire truck tipped lengthways on its side, part of which fell onto a parked car.

The truck driver was freed through a hole in the windshield.

He was uninjured but was taken to the emergency room for safety reasons.

It wasn't far: the construction site is on the grounds of the Essen University Hospital, as the fire brigade reported.

Why the truck overturned was initially unclear.

The salvage should be carried out by a specialist company.
