SAN JOSE -- A pickup truck hauling large bags of marijuana overturned and spilled its load in south San Jose, but passers-by took care of much of the cleanup, police said Thursday.

Onlookers rushed to scoop up the dumped weed as the driver of the white 1992 Toyota pickup fled on foot from the scene of the crash at Blossom Hill Road and Playa Del Rey at 12:48 a.m. Wednesday, police said.
