LAKE WORTH BEACH, Fla. — According to a news report from a Florida TV station, a tractor-trailer hauling milk on Interstate 95 northbound crashed in Palm Beach County which tied up traffic and making a huge mess on the highway.

The station reported that the crash involved three other vehicles and it happened after midnight near the Sixth Avenue exit in Lake Worth Beach.

Palm Beach County Fire posted a pun-riddled update with photos.

“A milk-truck had an ‘udderly’ unfortunate crash on I-95 last night just after midnight,” the post read. “Eleven people were evaluated on scene. Thankfully they were uninjured and none of them needed to be ‘moo-ved’ to the hospital. We calculated that 4,160 gallons of milk were spilled across the northbound lanes at MM63! It took almost three hours to clean up after this ‘cream-mergency’!”
