Small fuel spill near water reservoir

Environmental officials are investigating after a tractor trailer went off the road at the city’s reservoir at Lower Turtle Creek yesterday.

A little bit of diesel fuel leaked from the truck which stopped short of the water off Route 910. Riverview Deputy Fire Chief Robin True told the Times and Transcript the minor leak was controlled by his firefighters with absorbent material…although the water treatment plant was shut down for a few hours as a precaution.

Mount Allison University in Sackville is investigating what it calls an expression of hate on the campus on the weekend.

A swastika was stamped into the snow at Alumni Field. It was later replaced by the word hope. The university says it is taking the incident very seriously.
