A serious rollover crash involving a tanker truck shut down a section of a New Hampshire highway near the Massachusetts border on Monday morning.
The crash happened on the northbound side of the Everett Turnpike near Exit 8 in Nashua, according to Nashua Fire Rescue.
Oil started leaking onto the highway as a result of the wreck, prompting a hazmat response. A safety team is working to offload oil from the overturned tanker.
“The scene will be active for several hours as the product from the trailer is offloaded,” fire officials said in a post on X.
It wasn’t immediately clear if anyone was injured in the crash.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.
Our #hazmat team is on-scene working with @NHDES to ensure impacts are minimal. As of now, the leaking oil is contained.
