Comments 0 | Recommend 0CASCADE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) _ State police say a box containing
nitric acid fell off a truck and began leaking, closing one lane of
a western Michigan highway while crews cleaned up the spill.
Officials say the accident happened
about 8 a.m. Tuesday on Michigan 6 in Kent County's Cascade
Township, about 10 miles southeast of Grand Rapids.
One of the highway's four lanes was closed Tuesday morning
during the cleanup.
Nitric acid is highly corrosive and can cause severe burns.
