PHOENIX (AP) - Hazardous material teams are at Sky Harbor International Airport to contain and clean up a spill of jet fuel, but the airport says the incident isn’t affecting traffic, flights or other airport activity.

Authorities say a fuel truck’s cargo tank was punctured while its driver made a turn Tuesday morning.

The Phoenix Fire Department says crews have contained the spill and that there are no environmental concerns, evacuations or injuries.



Airport spokeswoman Julie Rodriguez says the truck belongs to a fuel company.
