Crash snarls traffic on 290 inbound

05:39 PM CST on Friday, November 21, 2008

KHOU.com staff report

HOUSTON -- An accident on 290 inbound at FM 1960 had all but one lane blocked just before noon Friday. 

Officials said an 18-wheeler spilled hydrochloric acid onto the highway as a result of the crash.

It took several hours to mop up the mess, but officials said the acid wasn't a threat to anyone.

By rush hour, most of the lanes had reopened, but traffic was still crawling.
