Pennsylvania Tractor Trailer Crash Spills 1,000 Pounds Hot Dogs Injures Four

A tractor-trailer carrying approximately 1,000 pounds of frozen hot dogs crashed on Interstate 83 near the Pennsylvania-Maryland border, causing a significant spill that covered the highway in hot dogs and created a major traffic jam. The truck experienced mechanical issues, leading it to scrape against concrete dividers and tear open the trailer, spilling the hot dogs onto the road. Four people sustained non-life-threatening injuries in the crash. Emergency responders faced challenges cleaning up the slippery hot dogs, which were ultimately discarded as garbage. The incident led to traffic delays during the morning rush hour, frustrating commuters caught in the resulting backup. Officials have since cleared the highway and reopened all lanes.
