A toxic chemical cloud billowed over cars on a highway in Argentina.

The hazardous fumes spilled from a semi-trailer truck and covered part of the Acceso Oeste highway in Ituzaingo, Buenos Aires on February 22 afternoon.

Local media citing firefighters reported that 'there is a quantity of toxic product, which still cannot be identified because the truck did not have labelling.'

Several people who inhaled the cloud of chemicals were rushed to hospitals, with no initial reports of serious cases.

San Martin ecological police were decontaminating the area.

The Ituzaingo municipal government has urged residents near the vicinity to stay indoors and close their doors and windows.
