On Monday afternoon on Interstate 59 northbound, 24 vehicles were involved in a pileup that closed the road for several hours. Of the vehicles involved 20 were passenger cars, 3 were tractor trailers, and 1 was a truck pulling an RV. 10 people were hospitalized after the incident, but no injuries were believed to be very severe. Witnesses say that a car fire on the side of the road blinded drivers, causing the accident.
A tractor-trailer rear-ended another vehicle on Interstate 65, causing a chain reaction crash that involved six other vehicles. One person and at least five other people were injured in the incident. The identity of the deceased will be released after next of kin are notified. Authorities are still investigating this accident.
