From Times Wire Reports
A waste truck leaked chicken fat along 20 miles of roadway near Accomac, Va., causing at least four crashes.
Virginia State Police said a valve was left open on the truck hauling waste chicken grease from a Perdue Farms plant and the fat leaked onto U.S. Route 13 between the plant and the Maryland state line.
Sgt. Joe Bunting described the consistency of the chicken grease on the road as a “glassy film” and added that the grease caused a “really funky” odor.
