This is a developing story. ABC4 will update this post as new information becomes available.

SOUTH JORDAN, Utah (ABC4) — The right lane of southbound I-15 was closed on Monday night after a semi-truck leaked several gallons of gas near South Jordan.

According to Lt. Cam Roden with the Utah Highway Patrol, the involved semi-truck reportedly began leaking fuel onto the highway around 9:20 p.m., and Roden said it appeared the truck had been leaking for a few miles.

“No drains are compromised but it sounds like we will have to do a long slowdown from about 9000 S. southbound….” Roden told ABC4.com Monday night.

The truck began leaking around exit 295 on I-15, and later came to a stop around mile marker 293. Roden confirmed that about 50 gallons of fuel had leaked out as of about 10 p.m. on Monday.

The driver of the semi-truck was able to make it into a “dirt area” near the 11400 S. off-ramp, Roden said.
