A Washington road turned into a sticky-sweet scene on Monday after a semi truck overturned, spilling its load of cherries onto the pavement. The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office reported that the accident happened Monday morning on Grant Road, between Union Avenue and the roundabout at Urban Industrial Way and Airport Way.
Authorities closed the road in both directions to allow crews to clear the wreckage and remove the crushed cherries from the roadway. By 12:30 p.m., the road had reopened to traffic in both directions.
