RILEY COUNTY - Crews spent most of Wednesday working to upright the nacelle, which had overturned on U.S. 24 east of Leonardville on Monday.

Three large wreckers worked together to upright the nacelle and a crane was brought in to lift it onto a new trailer.

A KDOT representative was on scene as crews loaded the nacelle and will be checking the safety of the load before it is allowed to be removed from the scene.

On Monday, law enforcement officials were investigating the cause of the crash, which occurred just before 3:30 p.m.
