Watch: Pizzas Strewn Across Interstate 30 After Semi Hits Bridge
State highway officials closed the westbound lanes of I-30 for four hours Wednesday so crews could pick up the pizzas.

LITTLE ROCK, AR — A tractor-trailer hauling frozen DiGiorno and Tombstone pizzas scraped a bridge support on Interstate 30 near Little Rock, spilling pies across the highway.
State highway officials closed the westbound lanes of I-30 for four hours Wednesday so crews could pick up the pizzas in front of the state Department of Transportation office. The eastbound side closed for an hour too as crews cleaned up the mess.
The bridge suffered cosmetic damage, agency spokesman Danny Straessle said, and some people were "shaken up." No one was hurt.

Straessle says the pizza sauce, the cheese and pepperoni, plus some spilled diesel left a "slippery spot."
