Reports of a hazardous spill on Vytauto street prompted emergency services at 2:46 pm. Initial complaints indicated that the road surface was excessively slippery in the vicinity of the district administration, suggesting a potential spill of oil. Upon investigation, personnel confirmed that a section of the road, spanning approximately one kilometer, was contaminated with spilled hydraulic oil.
Authorities determined that the source of the contamination was likely a breakdown involving a vehicle operating on the thoroughfare. While the initial response suggested that the road maintenance service could manage the cleanup independently, the team soon requested additional assistance due to a shortage of specialized tools required for the proper collection of the spilled material. The Kaunas Fire Department confirmed that the incident involved oil spilled from road vehicles.
Maintenance crews subsequently worked to remediate the contaminated area. Although the initial situation was contained, the process required sustained effort to ensure the entire section of the road was cleared. The road maintenance service reported completing the cleanup operation at 3:24 pm, successfully removing the spilled oil and restoring the usability of the roadway.
