KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jesse James Farm Road remains closed between 132nd to 138th streets two days after a tractor-trailer hauling gasoline overturned on the roadway.
The Clay County Sheriff's Office said the road will likely remain closed the rest of the week while clean up continues.
More than 5,0000 gallons of gasoline leaked from the semi, according to the sheriff's office.
The driver of the semi truck stated the road was narrow and he tried to move over for an oncoming car, causing the truck's wheels to go off the roadway, leading to it overturning, according to the preliminary investigation.
No injuries were reported in the crash.
