LEXINGTON, Ky. (WKYT) - A large amount of diesel fuel is causing a bit of a back up as crews attempt to clean it up and find the source.

Officials tell us that a large amount of diesel fuel was reported by the gas station on Angliana, in Lexington.

The source of the fuel spill is still unknown.

We’re told police are reviewing video from the gas station to try to determine where the fuel came from, but that it is not coming from the pumps.

Hazmat teams have been called up to clear the spill, and part of Angliana will remain shut down until they have it cleared.
