I-69 back open in Marshall County after grain-laden semi rolls over

Marshall County Emergency Management posted that all lanes of I-69 are back open. The crashed semi has been removed and traffic is restored. 

They note that drivers should still be cautious in the area where crews are still in the median, cleaning up the spilled trailer load of  grain off the ground.


ORIGINAL STORY:
The crash of a semi in Marshall County has partially blocked traffic along I-69 by  semi rollover crash on Wednesday morning.

The semi was hauling grain and crashed just north of exit 43, Symsonia Road. For a brief time, all lanes were blocked in response to the crash, but one lane in each direction is now open. The cleanup will take time, as the entire trailer load of grain spilled out.

Reportedly, the driver suffered some injuries, but there has been no word on his condition.
