A portion of a Chicago-area highway was closed for about two hours Tuesday afternoon while workers had the unenviable task of cleaning up a large manure spill, police said.

A semitrailer loaded with 30,000 pounds of manure rolled over on a ramp off Interstate 55 near the village of Hodgkins southwest of Chicago, Illinois State Police said.
