An unlikely event has led to standstill traffic on a busy highway in the US state of California. According to reports, a truck spilt more than 150,000 tomatoes across Interstate 80 highway, yesterday, August 29.

The tomatoes which gave the roadway an eerie red coat also caused seven cars to crash and at least three people were confirmed to have suffered minor injuries while a fourth is in hospital with a broken leg, according to the California Highway Patrol.
