I-5 Milk Mayhem: DUI Crash Spills Gallons

A serious multi-vehicle accident occurred on I-5 in Tukwila on Sunday, leading to a significant disruption. A semi-truck rolled over, causing a substantial quantity of milk to spill across the freeway. This incident led to prolonged traffic control and expected extended closures for the on-ramp from Trosper Road to northbound I-5.

Authorities reported that at least one other vehicle was involved in the collision. The driver of this vehicle was subsequently arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. Mainline traffic experienced considerable delays as crews worked to clean up the spilled milk and manage the scene. The Washington State Patrol indicated these delays were due to traffic control measures implemented at the bottom of the ramp to facilitate cleanup operations.
