All westbound lanes on I-40 West near mile marker 213 and the right shoulder were blocked following the incident.

Lanes reopened in the area just before 12:20 p.m. Sunday.

I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
