Doughnut glaze leaking from tanker truck

A tanker truck loaded with doughnut glaze lost control and rolled over on Pacific Highway South this afternoon, oozing sugary syrup into a nearby culvert.

Times Snohomish County reporter

A tanker truck loaded with doughnut glaze lost control and rolled over on Pacific Highway South this afternoon, oozing sugary syrup into a nearby culvert.

A Washington State Patrol spokeswoman said the truck overturned along southbound Pacific Highway South at South Kent Des Moines Road at 4:17 p.m.

Only minor injuries were reported and the truck driver declined transport by ambulance.

The State Department of Transportation was called to help clean up the leaking doughnut glaze.

A previous version of this story mistakenly identified the doughnut glaze as Krispy Kreme glaze. Information in this article, published June 15, 2009, was corrected June 16, 2009.
