A house on White Oak Avenue narrowly escaped damage from a box truck after the vehicle toppled over a ditch.

According to an officer with the Zanesville Police Department, the driver of the truck was moving to the side of the road for an oncoming vehicle when the truck tipped and landed on its side about a foot away from the front porch of a home.

The driver was injured but refused medical treatment.

Police say he will likely be cited for driving a commercial vehicle on a residential street.
