Among the series of wrecks to take place in less than 24 hours in Watauga County, was an overturned tractor and trailer on 421 just before the Watauga/Wilkes line on Monday morning.
The accident near Stoney Fork Road prompted NCDOT, Deep Gap Fire Department and assistance from Watauga County Sheriff's department to narrow the four lane down to two lanes, and for a time close the road completely.
The truck was carrying metal shavings and the driver was not injured, according to scanner dispatches.
