San Andreas, CA — A San Andreas man will be spending his weekend cleaning up 70 gallons of diesel fuel after an accident Friday morning.

Reports indicate Newcomb´s truck left the roadway and ended up down an embankment on John Tisconia´s property.

As a result of the accident, the fuel tank ruptured and spilled 70 gallons of fuel onto Tisconia´s land.
