A truck was left dangling precariously over the edge of Interstate 25 above the South Platte River Monday morning.
The white Dodge Ram pickup went off southbound I-25 just after 6th Avenue.
It's hard to imagine how the driver was able to get out of the cab! The Denver Fire Department say he got out on his own and is being treated for minor injuries.
You can see skid marks on the highway were the truck went off the road.
AIRTRACKER7 was over the truck at 6:20 a.m.
Look how close that truck came to going into the river. That driver was unlucky and lucky all at the same time. pic.twitter.com/VbUOyVvmtg
