An early morning accident shut down a lane on I-64 eastbound Monday morning.

The call came in at 4:32 a.m. Monday morning. A state trooper was called to a single vehicle entrapment, eastbound on I-64, east of Mallory Street in Hampton.

According to police, a 2008 Volvo tractor trailer was traveling eastbound when it was cut off by another vehicle. State troopers say when the car veered over, it forced the truck off the road, causing it to spin and flip.

The tractor trailer overturned, partially ejecting the driver.

The driver has been identified as 51-year-old Branko Radovanovic, of Newport News.

Radovanovic was taken to the hospital, but is not suffering life-threatening injuries.

Police say no charges have been placed yet.
