Fireball Whisky covers I-40 after crash involving two 18-wheelers

The Arkansas Department of Transportation is working to clean up a shipment of Fireball whisky after two 18-wheelers were involved in a crash on Interstate 40.

The Arkansas Department of Transportation is working to clean up a shipment of Fireball whisky after two 18-wheelers were involved in a crash on Interstate 40.

The crashed happened right before noon on Thursday, between Galloway and Kerr in Pulaski County.

The department tweeted out that they would be "working this for a while" with a picture of the Fireball whisky scattered across the roadway.

Danny Straessle with the transportation department said one of the truck's cab caught fire during the crash.

Arkansas State Police say the injuries sustained by those involved are not life-threatening.

This isn't the first time Arkansas roadways have been jammed up by food or drinks. In August 2017, frozen pizzas stopped traffic on I-30 and then spaghetti sauce stopped traffic in Camden.

We will continue to update this story with more information as it becomes available.
