1 dead after truck full of farm animals crashes
February 09, 2010 06:14 EST
WESTON, Fla. (AP) -- Authorities are investigating a traffic accident in which a truck full of goats, pigs and chickens crashed into another vehicle, killing one person and several animals.
The Florida Highway Patrol says the accident happened Monday night in Broward County, about 15 miles north of Weston, when a flatbed truck jackknifed and was struck by another vehicle.
The driver of the second truck was killed, and dozens of animals thrown onto the road.
Some of the livestock escaped into the Everglades, and investigators fear they could become a road hazard.
The cause of the accident remains under investigation.
