Big Rig Crash on I-80 Causes Several Injuries
A massive tomato spill in a Vacaville big rig crash on August 29 caused injuries and left slippery debris behind. The collision occurred on westbound Interstate 80 around 5:00 a.m. when the big rig crashed with a vehicle and then swerved and struck another, according to a spokesman for the California Highway Patrol (CHP). After colliding with the two vehicles, the truck struck the center median, which caused the cargo in the open trailer to spill out into eastbound lanes. The cargo was a big load of fresh tomatoes in an open-topped trailer.
