Details of the crash were not yet known.
Sky 5 flew over the scene and showed a wrecked semi on the side of the road with a large portion of its trailer missing.
The truck appears to have lost some of its cargo. A large, tank-like object was seen on the side of the road.
It’s not clear if anyone was injured.
Reports have indicated that fuel is leaking onto the roadway.
The crash has blocked at least two lanes of the interstate while crews clear the scene. The wreck wasn't expected to be cleared until 10:30 a.m.
Drivers heading eastbound should allow plenty of time when heading out.
