A truck hauling a trailer carrying two cars bottomed out on this hill on Aloha near 23rd this afternoon blocking traffic and leaving the driver and police looking for a solution to get things moving again.

1:11PM - The truck's driver has tried unsuccessfully to raise his trailer and gain traction. The police officer at the scene said a tow truck has been summoned so the real show is about to begin. And now it's starting to rain.
1:46PM - The truck and trailer remain stuck and the summoned tow truck has not yet
arrived. The owner of the vehicles being hauled is at the scene and told CHS
he had recently purchased the cars and was having them shipped to his home.
The owner said the driver wasn't familiar with the area's streets and
underestimated the grade of the hill's slope.

No problem there that a D-9 couldn't fix.
