LINCOLN (AP) — A south Lincoln street reopened Thursday following a chemical spill.
Authorities shut down a stretch of Saltillo Road early Thursday morning after about 150 gallons of ethanol leaked from a truck as it unloaded the fuel additive at a fuel farm.
Police shut down the road for safety concerns. Ethanol is highly flammable and can cause respiratory problems if its fumes are inhaled.
