BURBANK — A tanker carrying 7,000 gallons of oil overturned on the Golden State Freeway on Monday night, blocking the roadway for about a hour, according to the California Highway Patrol.
The accident closed all southbound lanes at Magnolia Boulevard about 8:45 p.m., said CHP Officer Shirley Gaines. About 40 gallons of oil spilled onto the pavement, forcing motorists to use the freeway shoulder to pass, she added.
