Scary moments occurred this week on a Wyoming interstate when high winds blew a semi onto a highway patrol vehicle, crushing it.

The event was caught on camera Tuesday by a trooper’s dashcam near the town of Elk Mountain on Interstate 80.

 

Wyoming Highway Patrol said three state troopers were stopped and helping drivers who were involved in earlier crashes.

All of the troopers were out of their patrol cars and not hurt.  WHP said two people inside the tractor-trailer were also uninjured.
