Images from Chopper 11 HD showed the big rig jackknifed across three left bound lanes and a dump truck overturned on its side near the shoulder of the roadway. Another truck, a 1-800-Got-Junk vehicle, was seen off the shoulder in a grassy area.
Two other vehicles were also involved. A silver SUV with significant rear-end was seen near a wooded area off the shoulder beside the 1-800-Got-Junk truck and a blue sedan with front-end damage was spotted near the 18-wheeler.
Details surrounding the incident, including if anyone was injured, have not been released at this time.
The westbound lanes of I-40 have since been cleared. Traffic delays are no longer an issue in this area.
