Horrible road tragedy near Milwaukee...
MILWAUKEE -- An interstate ramp is open in Milwaukee County after a semi spilled 45,000 pounds of beer.

The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Department closed the southbound Highway 41 ramp eastbound to Interstate 94 around 7:30 p.m. Monday.

There is no word on what caused the spill.

The driver was not injured.

8. "The driver was not injured."
Apparently he escaped the local townsfolk.

13. Not physically.
He will have to live with the guilt for the rest of his life. Alcohol abuse extracts a terrible toll.

12. Pounds of beer? Try ounces, or pints, or gallons, or kegs
One does not measure beer in pounds.

One measures it in points you blow on the breathalizer.
