The eels are technically a type of fish called "hagfish," which are an eel-shaped fish with no jaw or vertebrae that produce slime when distressed (hence the nickname "slime eel"). And they look like this.

According to police, no one was injured. But pictures and videos of the incident look like they're straight from some apocalypse horror movie where a natural disaster destroys society.
