Help sought in finding truck linked to I-15 spill

Nevada Highway Patrol investigators are asking for the public's help in finding the truck responsible for a grease spill on Interstate 15 that caused several accidents Wednesday morning in Las Vegas and a two-hour closure of the freeway's northbound lanes.

Witnesses said the driver of the truck pulled to the side of the freeway near D Street to plug the leak on the rig before continuing north, Trooper Kevin Honea, spokesman for the Nevada Highway Patrol said.

Officials need information from the driver about what happened.

The name on the side of the red truck is Grease Trap Services, and there might be a "GTS" logo on it, Honea said.

Officials believe the company is local.

Anyone with information about the truck or the spill can call the 432-5110.
