Wed Feb 15, 2017 | 5:51pm EST
Crews have cleaned up 95 percent of what appears to be an intentional
crude oil spill from a large transport vehicle into a ditch near
Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, local authorities said on Wednesday.
Lloydminster Fire Chief Jordan Newton told a news conference officials
believe a truck pulled up to the ditch near the city's wastewater
treatment plant and dumped the oil.
Local media reported that the spill totaled around 12 barrels, and there
is no threat to any water supplies.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police are investigating the incident.
