An overturned food waste lorry has spilled tonnes of fish guts across a main road in Devon, with locals reporting a "stinky" situation. The collision occurred on the Bolham roundabout at Tiverton at around 4am on Tuesday, October 22.

The vehicle was en route carrying food waste when it tipped over, causing it to dump its load and wafting strong odours across the area. A local told DevonLive: "This overturned in Tiverton and whatever it is it absolutely stinks. It's causing queues on A361 and all up Lea Road."
