Minor injuries were reported after two tractor-trailers collided on Highway 401 in Clarington Wednesday, spilling canned goods across the roadway.

Police said the collision occurred in the westbound lanes of the highway at Hwy. 115.

One tractor-trailer was hauling canned goods and the impact of the crash caused hundreds of cans to spill out onto the roadway.

One driver sustained minor injuries, police said.

Two left lanes of the highway are closed in the area as cleanup continues.

The collision comes just hours after police in Burlington had to call in beekeepers to contain millions of bees that fell off the back of a truck onto the roadway on Guelph Line.
