   Two people are recovering from injuries after a tractor-trailer accident in Madison County.  It happened just after 8:00 Friday morning.  

   Police say the semi had been eastbound on I-270 when it left the road just east of the Canal Bridge.  The big rig broke through a barrier and rolled down to a construction road where it overturned.  

   EMS crews treated two people at the scene, including the truck driver.  

   It's not clear why the driver lost control of the semi or who the other injured person is.
