FORT WAYNE, Ind. (Indiana's NewsCenter) - Use caution while driving on I-469 in southern Allen County overnight.

A tanker truck overturned along the highway's southbound lanes at the 10.5 mile marker, between U.S. 27 & Winchester Road, shortly before 11PM. Police say no lanes are closed, but authorities are at the scene.

The truck is said to be leaking some diesel fuel and some water-based latex paint. Haz-mat crews have been called in to clean the mess.

The truck's driver was not seriously hurt
