No one was injured when a semi trailer tipped and crushed two vehicles, parked in a lot at the corner of 32nd Avenue and 39th Street south in Fargo on Tuesday morning.

Both vehicles belong to employees at Fargo Tire.

Paul Taylor said he did a double take when he looked out and saw his 2006 Chevy crew cab pickup flattened.

"I didn't hear a thing," said Taylor. "Somebody just came in here and told me that your truck was wrecked. That was basically it. I come out here and there's a surprise right there."

Taylor said both his pickup and another one parked next to it are totaled.

Police are still trying to determine what caused the semi trailer to roll. It disconnected from the truck cab when it tipped. It does not appear speed was a factor.

The trailer contained at least one piece of equipment valued at $500,000.
