Hazmat crew cleaning chicken waste after 18-wheeler, dump truck wreck on I-20 near Smith County

SMITH COUNTY, Texas ( KETK ) — A three-vehicle wreck involving two 18-wheelers and one dump truck is causing traffic delays near the Smith County and Van Zandt County line.

According to DPS Sergeant Adam Albritton, at around 12:30 p.m., a dump truck had made a full stop on I-20 near mile marker 546 due to traffic from a previous wreck. An 18-wheeler carrying chicken waste and byproducts attempted to slow down and make a stop but crashed into the dump truck and hit the guard rail.

Another 18-wheeler attempted to stop, but reportedly failed due to the chicken waste and grease and crashed into the dump truck, Albritton said.

Hazmat crews are currently at the scene cleaning the chicken waste. Traffic is being diverted on to the weigh station.

Albritton said no injuries have been reported due to the crash.

At this time, officials do not know when roads will be cleared and urge drivers to use caution.
