PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. (AP) -- Neighbors in a South Florida neighborhood had to deal with a smelly situation after a sewage truck overturned.
Officials say about 100 gallons of waste spilled from an All Star Toilets sewage tanker when it hit a utility pole and rolled over Monday afternoon in Pembroke Pines.
Fire Rescue spokesman Tom Gallagher says no hazardous material response was needed. He says the sewage was treated and all chemicals used were biodegradable.
A Pembroke Pines street cleaner "vacuumed up" the sewage. Officials say the foul odor went away once the waste and the truck were removed.
Officials say the driver was wearing a seat belt and was not injured.
