Truck carrying live fish spilled its guts all over a Toronto highway ramp this weekend
Ontario Provincial Police are investigating a fishy accident after a cargo truck rolled over on a Toronto highway, spilling live fish onto the road.
The driver was on the ramp connecting Highway 404 with Highway 401 when the truck flipped, and his cargo flapped. The spill closed the southbound 404 ramp connecting to eastbound 401.
The driver was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries, according to OPP Acting Sgt. Tim Dunnah.
