VALLEJO, Calif. (KGO) -- A crash involving two vehicles caused a big rig to overturn in Solano County on Saturday, according to the California Highway Patrol.

The crash was reported around 3 p.m. and happened on westbound State Route 37, west of Walnut Ave. in Vallejo.

CHP Solano says the roadway is open, but will eventually close to begin a hazmat cleanup as a large quantity of gasoline is leaking into the water.
