UTICA, ONEIDA CO. -- Cleanup crews in Utica had some work to do Friday morning after a salt truck spilled its load all over the road.
According to Utica Police, Broad Street between John Street and the North Genesee Street bridge was shut down for a couple of hours when a Department of Public Works truck lost its cargo of road salt. Police say the truck's hopper overturned, spilling salt all over the roadway.
