Truck hauling pigs overturns in Miller County
COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
Missouri State Highway Patrol troopers worked an unusual crash scene Friday morning when a semi-truck hauling pigs overturned on a Miller County road.
The patrol's Troop F posted images on social media of the scene on Highway 17 at Saline Road at about 11 a.m. The road was blocked as first responders rounded up the pigs, the patrol said.
Troop F spokesman Cpl. Kyle Green said the truck overturned because it was driving too fast for the road conditions. No humans were injured but some pigs suffered unspecified injuries, Green said.
You don’t see this everyday…
