    Wreck is reported to be around the Amma, WV Exit. Exit 62 ?? News says all lanes between Amma, and Walback exits are closed. SUV is totaled from the rollover. Appears the driver of the SUV had 35 chickens onboard which were caught and contained. Bomb specialist is being called in from Williamson, WV so it will be a while. Everybody be safe out there.

    Did you ever smell a group of chickens in a confined space? No wonder they called in the bomb squad. They need to call in the haz mat team also.

    Whoever was driving that thing must be half looney with 35 chickens in it, Looked to be about the size of a Toyota Rav4 before it's size was minimized by the rollover/s.
