Flipped Boat - ouch

Caller reports approximately 40 gallons of gasoline was spilled onto roadway due to a flipped boat. A tow company was in the process of hooking-up/towing a boat from a broken down vehicle and the tow truck turned the boat over, spilling the gasoline from the vessel's fuel tank. Local FD is on scene. Unknown clean-up details at this time. Capital Circle is closed from West Tennessee to Hwy. 20 for clean-up.

UPDATE: 11-18-06/1312 EST The roadway is now reopened. <413>

Hope the insurance takes care of things
use your opportunities ...

That is scary! Thank goodness for well trained personnel to handle such accidents.
It may be that my sole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.
