Truck spills spinach across Ohio highway

Nov. 12 (UPI) -- Authorities in Ohio said traffic delays resulted when a semi trick overturned on a stretch of highway and spilled its load of spinach across multiple lanes.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol said the truck was traveling in the northbound lanes of Interstate 71 when the vehicle went off the right side of the road in Washington Township, just outside of Mansfield, and the driver over-corrected.

The truck overturned in the center and right lanes of the highway. Spinach from the truck's trailer spilled all across the roadway, troopers said.

The 50-year-old driver of the truck was taken to a hospital to receive treatment for minor injuries.

Police said the crash, which caused hours-long traffic delays Sunday, is under investigation.
