Man arrested after overturned lorry spills hay across busy Shropshire road

Rush hour traffic built up on the A5 when the lorry turned over at the roundabout at Felton Butler spilling a shed load of hay.

Traffic heading northwest towards Oswestry moved slowly after the incident near Shrewsbury at about 3.40pm.

Terri-Anne Powell, a spokeswoman for West Mercia Police said: "We were called at 3.37pm after it had been reported that a lorry had overturned near to the Felton Butler roundabout on the A5 from West Felton to Oswestry.

"No injuries were reported and Highways are dealing with the incident.

"There is a man under arrest at the moment.

"I believe there was debris on the road and the lorry was believed to be transporting hay."

Highways England confirmed a road closure had been put in place, but it has since reopened.
