Truck spills load of human waste after crashing on I-5 off-ramp
“While the semi was taking that sweeping left curve, it left the roadway and went up on an embankment, rolled onto its side and tipped one of its trailers — tipping all of that product out of that trailer,” said Washington State Trooper Mark Francis. “It also caused a small diesel spill from the diesel in that semi.”
One person was injured.
It is unknown how much waste the trailer was carrying, but the truck and two trailers amounted to 101,000 pounds.
