No people were hurt.

It happened about 3 p.m. where U.S. highways 95 and 93 split, heading toward Searchlight, according to Nevada Highway Patrol.

Traffic was limited to one travel lane in each direction as crews were waiting for a tow truck, NHP said. The surviving sheep had all been taken care of as of about 6 p.m.
