BLISS - Idaho State Police says a tanker on Highway 26 overturned spilling 1,000 gallons of fuel into the ground and causing several evacuations in the area.
Authorities say the incident occurred just west of the overpass on Interstate 84 at milepost 141 near Bliss. ISP says at approximately 6:10 a.m., Russell Sherman, 49, of Filer, missed his turnoff to Hagerman and attempted an unlawful u-turn at the Bliss exit. He was unable to execute the turn and the Kenworth tractor and Beall trailer separated, police say. The trailer flipped one and a half times landing off the roadway. Several evacuations were implemented including the Bliss School. |
