ORLANDO, Fla. -

Two news crew members were trapped in a news van after it overturned on Wymore Road just off Interstate 4.

WESH 2 News reporter Greg Fox was removed from the truck before 7 p.m., and his photographer, Frank Burt, was removed not long after. Both had been stuck in the truck, because it was on its side at a 45-degree angle.

Authorities said both men are OK.

The crash happened on Wymore Road near Roxbury Road.

The crash appears to have happened after the dish on top of the truck that allows reporters to broadcast live somehow collided with the overpass. It's not clear if the mast on which the dish sits became raised while driving, or wasn't properly lowered before the crew left its previous assignment.

Traffic in the area was affected until the truck was removed.
