WEST PALM BEACH, FLA. (WSVN) - The tanker was carrying more than 8,000 gallons of jet fuel when it flipped, spilling an unknown amount of fuel into the city’s sewer system.
Emergency crews arrived to the scene, and the tanker was sprayed down with foam. The driver is OK, according to officials.
“Whoever gave that guy a license needs to have their head examined,” said a witness. “Because they’re negligent.”
A second tanker arrived to the scene to offload the remaining fuel.
Officials have asked motorists to avoid the area until hazmat clears the scene.
The cause of the rollover remains unknown.
