Crews curtail Huntington Co. spill
JAMIE DUFFY | The Journal Gazette
Several emergency agencies worked nearly 12 hours 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 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, Roanoke Town Marshal Jim Wood said.
