CBS affiliate WHP reported<\/a> that the truck was carrying a thousand pounds of frozen hot dogs when it crashed around 9:15 a.m. on Friday.\u00a0<\/p>\n“Once those leave the truck and hit the road, that’s all garbage, and it’s still pretty warm,” Shrewsbury Fire Company Chief Brad Dauberman said.<\/p>\n
4 injured in crash that spills hot dogs on Pennsylvania highway<\/p>\n
State police said the tractor-trailer had an unspecified mechanical problem on Interstate 83 a few miles north of the Maryland line, as morning rush hour was wrapping up, causing it to push into a passenger vehicle. When the truck scraped along a concrete divider, its trailer was ripped open and the contents scattered.<\/p>\n
Four people required medical attention, Dauberman said, for injuries that police said were not life-threatening.<\/p>\n
A front-end loader was used to scoop up the hot dogs and drop them into a dump truck. <\/p>\n
Dauberman said emergency crews couldn’t help but see the humor in the situation, and his daughter texted him a photo of a hot dog-themed T-shirt.<\/p>\n
“I can tell you personally, hot dogs are very slippery,” the fire chief said. “I did not know that.” <\/p>\n
