A cement truck smashed into a light pole and careened into a building, collapsing a wall before it toppled over on its side.
The driver of the truck had minor injuries but there was nobody inside the building at 6:45 a.m. when the accident happened at 770 S. Broadway, said Sonny Jackson, Denver police spokesman.
Part of Broadway was closed off for four hours while several cranes were used to remove the cement truck, Jackson said.
The cement truck was northbound on Broadway when it missed a right turn and smashed into the building, punching a huge hole in the cement block building, he said.
