Oct. 21 (UPI) — The California Highway Patrol (CHP) has issued a warning to travelers in the Fresno area about a “berry sticky situation” on the road.
A truck lost its load of blueberries on Monday evening, causing a spill in the southbound lanes of Highway 99 near the eastbound Highway 180 interchange.
CHP Fresno took to social media to share photos showing the blueberries scattered across the roadway, as well as the sticky, purple mess created when vehicles ran over the berries.
To address the issue and prevent traffic disruptions, a California Department of Transportation crew was dispatched to the scene to clear the blueberry jam from the highway.
Drivers in the area are advised to use caution and expect possible delays as cleanup efforts continue.
