The driver of this 2008 Chevrolet Silverado escaped serious injuries and was treated at the scene after witnesses said the pickup did a 180-degree flip in the air after traveling off westbound Interstate 70 last Friday, Sept. 25. Billy Joe Branon, 78, of Warrenton, was treated for cuts to his arm following the accident involving an 18-wheeler. According to witnesses, Branon was traveling in the left lane on I-70 following an 18-wheeler when he attempted to return to the right lane.
