The latest news and biggest developments to keep you informed about the deadly pandemic.

HUTCHINS, Texas -- A tractor-trailer hauling toilet paper crashed and caught fire near Dallas early Wednesday, spilling the hot commodity all over an interstate. The fire shut down westbound lanes of Interstate 20 near Interstate 45 in Hutchins, the Texas Department of Transportation said.The toilet paper appeared to be large rolls typically used in stores, restaurants and other businesses. Texas Department of Transportation officials said the load of toilet paper “burned extensively,” according to Dallas TV station WFAA.

Glad that the driver is okay. Be careful out there.

Oops the shit hit the fan!

April fools or coincidence?

Oh dang! Where are the looters?

Sabotage!!

I’m actually half shocked the video wasn’t of a mob of people rushing the street to pick up contents.

O no! Not the white gold! I sense a shortage...

What a waste 😂😂😂😂

Treasure wrecking. You know what you destroyed are the huge valuable at this time!

Industrial toilet paper. Not what is used at home. These are the rolls found in stores & office building lavatories.

His life (truck driver) is more important than a bunch of 🧻!

I am glad the driver is ok..

Best way is starting to wash your own a**es

RIP our soft, fallen soldiers.

Heard the driver got away Scott-free cuz he was Charmin😭🤷🏻‍♀️ Also, what a shitty April fools joke.

Nooooo , I needed some toilet paper 😂

See gotta stop putting this crap before God. Glad the driver is ok.

Panic purchase to be blamed and the retailers who kept calling the driver of course!

Democrats are at it again

No doubt the truck wiped out and rolled. But I'm sure the police can uncover the cause. All they have to do is follow the paper trail.
