A tractor-trailer flipped over on a Louisiana highway, dumping thousands of potatoes, catching fire and killing the driver.
Investigators couldn't immediately tell if the driver was a man or a woman. Louisiana State Police report on Facebook that the wreck happened early yesterday on Interstate 10 eastbound, near the Butte La Rose exit.
It took several hours to reopen the highway because crews had to clear the potatoes.
