Capricorn Coast man dies in truck rollover north of Cairns

A CENTRAL Queensland man has died after his truck crashed in North Queensland on Monday morning.

The Cairns Post reported yesterday that the 29-year-old man, from Lammermoor, may have been on his phone when he crashed his vehicle just outside of Laura, a small township north of Cairns.

Police say the truck driver had been transporting lime in the heavy vehicle when it failed to negotiate a turn and rolled.
