A semi-truck rolled over on a busy Seattle highway on Monday spilling hundreds of pounds of frozen shellfish, which caused major delays and left drivers feeling a little crabby.
The truck appeared to have tipped shortly after turning a corner on a raised portion of the roadway, cracking the tractor trailer open.

Crews spent six hours cleaning up the mess. It took a tow truck to right the tractor trailer.
Dozens of boxes of cooked frozen crab rained down on the road below the highway as the truck was returned to its wheels.
Seattle authorities said the cleanup was aided by having learned from a similar crash last year.
In March 2015, a truck carrying fish also rolled over, spilling seafood across the roadway, and snarling traffic city-wide.
