COLUMBUS, Ind. — A semi-truck lost a side fuel tank in the 3100 block of North National Road around 4:30 Tuesday afternoon.
The tank bounced in traffic and made contact with a pickup truck driven by Mark Buss. A Columbus Regional Health EMS team that was in the area used towels from their ambulance to minimize the amount of fuel that spilled into a nearby storm drain.
Firefighters arrived and used absorbing booms to remove the oil from the storm drain. The semi has not been identified. No injuries were reported.
