MIAMI, FL -- A tractor trailer got stuck under some trees along Tigertail Avenue and Calusa Street Monday morning.

"No injuries reported but the Technical Rescue Team was dispatched to assist with the safe removal of the trailer," said Capt. Ignatius Carroll of Miami Fire Rescue.

"It appears the male truck driver was trying to make a right turn and under estimated the turn radius," Carroll said. "The trailer became wedged against the tree branches, almost causing it to overturn."
