Crews worked to clean up a large diesel fuel spill this morning after a PT Cruiser side-swiped a semi truck, damaging the fuel tank, according to Beavercreek police on scene.

Officers said that the whole tank of gas from the semi truck had spilled.

There were no injuries in the crash.

Cleanup crews were requested to the scene, police said, but were unable to respond, so officers planned to use cat litter to help contain the spill and provide traction.

Crews would be there for some time to clean the spill, police said.
