Semi-Truck Crash on I-70 in Wheat Ridge Causes Huge Backup in Traffic

It's not clear if anyone was hurt in the accident.

Earlier this morning, around 8 a.m., a semi-truck crashed into the center median of Westbound Interstate 70 in Wheat Ridge, according to reports. Closures along the highway caused major traffic backup (and headaches) for rush hour. The accident occurred between Kipling Street and Wadsworth Boulevard.

We're unsure if anyone has been injured.
