    Fallen canisters cause closure of Nashville ramp

    NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Canisters of frozen bull semen that fell from a Greyhound bus caused a minor scare when emergency officials found them emitting vapor by the side of the road near downtown Nashville.

    The canisters fell off just before 6 a.m. on Tuesday as the bus traveled around the curve of a ramp to Interstate 65. Metro Nashville police and fire officials were called to the scene because of reports of a foul odor coming from the leaking canisters.

    WKRN-TV (http://bit.ly/n7aW6A) reported the four canisters of sperm and dry ice were en route from Ohio to a Texas breeding facility.

    Officials shut down the ramp until they determined what was in the containers, but the scene was cleared around 9 a.m.
