A Pennsylvania highway was closed in both directions on Friday after 1,000 pounds of frozen hot dogs spilled from a tractor trailer after it crashed. Emergency crews scrambled to pick up the thousands of scattered dogs which they said were quite slippery.

State police said the tractor trailer had an unspecified mechanical problem on Interstate 83 a few miles north of the Maryland line as morning rush hour was wrapping up, causing it to push into a passenger vehicle. When the truck scraped along a concrete divider, its trailer was ripped open and the contents scattered.

A truckload of hot dogs spilled onto the Pennsylvania interstate after the truck carrying the franks had a mechanical failure, causing it to collide with a passenger car before scraping into a concrete barrier. The barrier ripped the trailer open and spilled the hot dogs across Interstate 83.
