Pair of semi trailers crashes in Mitchell Interchange Tuesday

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- A Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman says a pair of semi trailers crashed in the Mitchell Interchange on Tuesday afternoon, October 15th.

It happened in the Mitchell Interchange from I-43 EB to I-94 SB.

No one was injured, but one of the semis involved jackknifed in the Interchange and spilled fuel.

All lanes had to be closed around 2:30 p.m. in order to allow tow trucks to remove the semis and for the fuel to be cleaned up.

The closure of the eastbound lanes is expected to stretch into rush hour.
