TRAFFIC ALERT I 24 W. TIME 4:43 AM SUNDAY
We have a single-vehicle injury crash on I 24 WEST just above Highway 49 near Pleasant View. The crash is situated on the westbound side so the effect on traffic should be minimal but officials are talking about shutting the interstate down to land a medical helicopter on the interstate. If you’re traveling in that area expect delays or you may want to seek alternative an route for the next hour.
Crash involves extraction.
We have a couple more photos for you from Sunday morning’s tanker fire in Springfield. If it weren’t for the brave actions of Springfield firefighters and the alert passerby Monica Yates, it could’ve been much worse. For the full story and video CLICK HERE.
