Animal guts spilled onto Interstate 90 near Freya Street

Trooper Randy Elkins of the Washington State Patrol said a rendering truck was hauling cow and horse organs in an open-top trailer when the driver braked quickly to avoid a collision at about 4 p.m. The viscera “sloshed out of the front” of the trailer and onto the freeway, he said.

“The trooper I just talked to at the scene said it was the most disgusting thing he’s ever smelled,” Elkins said. “He said they’re having issues with it because it is so slick. They’re having trouble picking it up.”
