Hungry locals scrambled to collect two tons of sausages that were spilled from an overturned truck.<br /><br />The vehicle was carrying the meat from a factory to shops when it lost control on the slippery road in Saraburi province, central Thailand on Monday afternoon (May 11).<br /><br />Footage taken by passing motorist Itphumm Tanatchok shows how dozens of scavenging locals and drivers stopped their journeys and converged on the scene to scoop up the bratwursts.<br /><br />Some of them were seen stuffing the plastic bags full of meat into their own empty sacks while others carried them in their hands.<br /><br />Itphumm said: "At first, I thought they are helping the driver to collect the spilled sausages, but when I drove to the scene, I was shocked. <br /><br />''I did not think people would be as unkind as this. They were taking the sausages back to their cars." <br /><br />Officials said the driver was injured in the crash and was transported to the nearby hospital. <br /><br />There were only a handful of sausages left at the scene later that evening by the time residents had finished looting the area.
