About 40 tons of cow intestines and bones spilled onto a major highway after a truck driver became distracted by his iPod and his semitrailer tipped over, officials said.


Authorities closed parts of Interstate 43 for about two hours Thursday while the beef byproduct was cleaned up, said sheriff's Sgt. Blaine Spicer.

The accident happened in the town of Mosel when 25-year-old Ryan Engle's truck veered off the road as he adjusted his iPod, Spicer said.
