Shock in twist: animal transport truck overturns with 6,000 chickens!
An accident occurred in Twist last night, drawing attention to the safety of animal transport. At around 1:30 a.m., a 28-year-old driver was driving his animal transport vehicle, consisting of a truck and a trailer, on an agricultural concrete slab road when the incident occurred. For reasons that are still unclear, the driver lost control of the trailer and left the road, causing the trailer to overturn. The load consisted of around 6,000 chickens.
The situation turned out to be critical as many of the animals ran free after the accident. Immediate action was taken by the Twist Volunteer Fire Department, who arrived on scene to secure the chickens and prevent further harm. A member of the veterinary office was also called in to ensure that the animals were properly cared for.
