On Tuesday afternoon, a yellow fertilizer tank broke open as it crossed the rail- road tracks on its way into town on 5th Street, spilling several gallons of fertilizer onto the road and closing the busy intersection. The City, Garretson Fire Department, Minnehaha County Sheriff, and BNSF were immediately contacted, and resources were put to work to contain and clean up the spill.
