CABARRUS COUNTY, N.C. — Coins spilled everywhere after a bank truck crashed in Cabarrus County on Wednesday afternoon.
A Brinks truck collided with another vehicle just before 1 p.m. on the westbound side of Highway 24/27 just east of Bethel School Road.
Money spilled onto the highway due to the crash.
"We have been assured every coin will be collected off the ground with a specialized vacuum unit that Brinks utilizes," Midland Fire and Rescue tweeted.
One person was transported by Cabarrus EMS to a nearby hospital with potentially serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation responded to the area with a sand truck to help contain a fuel spill that happened during the incident.
Only coins, no paper bills, spilled onto the roadway.
The cause of the crash is unknown at this time.
