Redway responds to sewage/fuel spill.


The Redway Fire department responded to the scene of a sewage spill at hooker creek. The truck went off the freeway, over the bank, and landed sideways on Hooker Creek Road, broke in two behind the cab, spun around and slid down the riprap. It stopped with the drivers side front wheel in the water. The driver climbed out the passenger window, and was uninjured except for a cut on his left hand.

About two thousand gallons of sewage, plus fifty gallons diesel fuel went in the river.
