A semi-trailer truck crash in the southbound lanes of Interstate 380 just south of Swisher spilled lawnmowers along the roadway Tuesday afternoon.
As of 1:20 p.m., crews remained on the scene, and traffic in the southbound lanes was backed up for miles.
The crash, which happened around noon, split one of the semi trailers in two pieces, spilling the lawnmowers onto the interstate.
It’s not clear if there were any injuries.
