Airport workers in Virginia had a mess to clean up after foam filled a hanger.

A fire-suppression system malfunctioned at the Manassas Regional Airport causing white foam to spew out, filling a hanger last week. The foam then flowed out of the building and covered a nearby road, The Associated Press reported.

Despite the mess and the resulting cleanup the airport stayed open, the AP reported.
