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
