Multiple Fatalities Reported In Highway Car Crashes Caused By Dust Storm
|
[WIRE] Officials in Illinois said on Monday that multiple people were killed after 40 to 60 cars and at least 20 commercial vehicles crashed in a dust storm.
ABC7 Chicago reported that over 30 people were injured and several people were killed from the string of car accidents on I-55.
"I-55 is shut down both south and northbound I-55 from milepost 63 to 80 at this time due to a large crash," Illinois State Police said in a statement. "Traffic is being diverted onto the frontage road."
The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) said in a tweet that the crash was "caused by a dust storm, which has greatly reduced visibility."
Aggravated by high-speeds, inattention, and stupidity.
"I-55 traffic is being detoured via Illinois 104 and Illinois 48 through Taylorville," IDOT added.
