Milk tanker crash causes highway closure and traffic chaos

TL;DR Summary
A tanker truck carrying milk crashed on US-131 in Grand Rapids, causing the closure of all northbound lanes as crews worked to clean up the spilled milk.

The road reopened to normal traffic in the afternoon, and police believe speed was a factor in the collision. The driver of the truck was uninjured.
