According to the driver, who wasn't injured, the truck overturned with his truck blew a tire.
A sea of oranges spilled out off the side of Villa City Road.
One company employees said the load of oranges could have been worth as much as $10,000.
The oranges were headed from a central Florida grove to a juicing plant in Leesburg where they would have been turned into orange juice.
A crew is going to try to salvage as many of the oranges as they can. While some of them were smashed, most of them survived the accident intact.
