Herd of cows hit by tour bus and 18 wheelers on I-30 in Arkansas
Posted: Jun 10, 2011 5:31 AM EDT Updated: Jun 10, 2011 7:35 AM EDT TEXARKANA, AR (KSLA) - Arkansas State Police worked an accident Friday morning that involved a group of cows and several vehicles. The accident happened around 3:30 a.m. on Interstate 30 at mile marker 7 in Texarkana, Arkansas. According to Arkansas State Police a group of cows apparently were on the interstate when they were hit from both the west and eastbound lanes. The tour bus, reportedly hit one cow in the westbound lane and three 18-wheelers each hit a cow that was in the eastbound lane of I-30. At one point, troopers shutdown one lane of traffic in both the east and westbound lanes as crew worked to clear the scene. The tour bus was reportedly carrying a Hispanic band. As of 5:30 a.m. all lanes of traffic on I-30 had been reopened. Fortunately no people were hurt as a result of this accident. |
