Muslims in North Carolina are frantic after learning that thousands of piglets are on the loose

An overturned truck, carrying 2,600 piglets, snarled traffic on the Raleigh Beltline in Raleigh, N.C.

The piglets, each about 3 weeks old, were on their way from Johnson County, N.C., to Iowa on Tuesday morning when a vehicle changed lanes and struck the truck transporting them on the city’s I-440 beltway.

The truck then traveled down an embankment and overturned. Squealing piglets were turned loose in morning traffic.
