Crash Causes Spill In O’Side
Written by admin on September 24, 2009
Hazmat and sewer crews rushed to clean up a diesel spill Thursday afternoon after a moving van crashed in Oceanside, North County Fire Officials said. At about 1:30 p.m. a moving van collided with an unknown object at the corner of El Camino Real and Mission Avenue. One person was injured and flown to Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla for treatment. It’s not yet clear what caused the crash. About 100 to 150 gallons of diesel spilled into storm drains before officials were able to stop the leak at 2:30 p.m.
Sad that’s all draining into our local ocean. Guess I’ll avoid O’Side beach in the morning…you should as well.
