On Thursday morning, a 57-year-old truck driver was detained after loads of potatoes were found spilled on the Storebaelt bridge, a key bridge that links two Danish islands. The spill was first reported on the westbound side of the bridge at 6.35 a.m. (0435 GMT). A similar incident occurred on the eastbound side shortly after.
Police spokesman Kenneth Taanquist said they are working on two hypotheses as to why the potatoes were spilled. The driver was held on suspicion of causing reckless endangerment to life.
The Storebaelt bridge is a suspension bridge that connects the island where the capital, Copenhagen, is located to the rest of Denmark. It is a major transportation route for both cars and trains, and the incident caused significant disruption to traffic.
The Danish police are currently investigating the incident and have not released any further information. It is unclear why the potatoes were spilled or what consequences the driver may face. However, the police are taking the incident seriously and are working to ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the future.
