A tractor-trailer hauling dog food was heading east on I-76 when it attempted to take Exit 257 - Harrisburg East Interchange to I-283 Northbound, according to PennDOT and Turnpike officials.

That's when it flipped over — spilling dog food on the interstate at 1:47 a.m.

The exit ramp was fully closed until around 9 a.m. when one lane reopened, as seen on traffic cameras, but a second crash happened at 1:12 p.m. closing the ramp again.

Crews remained on the scene for clean up as of 2:30 p.m.

It is unclear when the roadway will fully reopen.

No injuries have been reported.
