RIVER HILLS, Wis. - All lanes of Interstate 43 southbound were blocked at Good Hope Road in Glendale due to a rollover crash Tuesday morning, Jan. 16.
It happened around 10:20 a.m. The blockage led to severe backups; officials said there were queues in excess of three miles approaching the scene.
The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office says around 10:20 a.m., a man was reportedly looking at his phone before looking up and realizing he had started to drift into the next lane. Officials say the man over-corrected and, in doing so, flipped his vehicle, which struck another vehicle just as the flip began.
