Falling sheep rain down on drivers after truck rollover in Australia -
A truck carrying around 400 livestock has overturned on a highway overpass in southern Australia, causing sheep to rain down on the freeway below.
Police say the sheep fell onto the Princess Highway outside Melbourne on Thursday night after the truck crashed and flipped over onto its side, causing it to hang precariously over the freeway.
Several cars on the Princess Highway were damaged by the falling sheep and several people were injured. Allan Eade, a paramedic, says there were “a large number of deceased and injured” sheep.
Robert Leardi, who was driving a car damaged by the livestock, says he was lucky that he was not seriously hurt. He says he was driving on the highway when “all of a sudden these sheep are falling down from the top of an overpass.”
