Several emergency agencies worked nearly 12 hours straight to contain a 3,000-gallon fuel spill into the Little Wabash River in Huntington County.
About 11:15 p.m. Monday, a fuel delivery truck accidentally hit a parking bollard as the truck pulled into the Lassus Handy Dandy gas station at First Street and U.S. 24 in Roanoke. When the truck’s safety valve failed, gasoline spilled, entering storm sewers, according to Roanoke Town Marshal Jim Wood.
The driver of the fuel truck alerted authorities who showed up quickly to contain the spill. From the storm sewers, the gasoline flowed into Cow Creek that flows into the Little Wabash River toward Huntington, Wood said.
