According to an incident report from the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT), the accident occurred at 7:34 a.m. ET near mile marker 153.4 near the I-30/I-40 interchange.

At approximately 10:48 a.m. ET, the truck was hitched to a tower and hauled off. It's unclear now if the truck would be transported back directly to Knoxville or if it would be worked on in the Little Rock area before returning.

There were no injuries in relation to the accident, a Tennessee spokesperson confirmed to Mike Wilson of Knox News.

Tennessee football has its bye week during Week 5 following the top-15 SEC victory. Ironically, the Vols are scheduled to play Arkansas in Fayetteville, Arkansas — about 191 miles from Little Rock, against Arkansas on Oct. 5.
