Garner,NC : A multi-vehicle crash injured six people on June, Tuesday 13th 2017
A multi-vehicle crash injured six people and closed Interstate 40 west near Garner for nearly two hours on Tuesday night.
Six people — including two children — were injured in the wreck which happened as a chain-reaction crash.
Authorities said that traffic was slowing down because of an existing fire on the side of the road.
However, a van rear-ended a Chevrolet Impala and caused that car to collide with another vehicle, officials said.
A detour was set up by authorities while the road was closed.
The highway reopened around 10:50 p.m.
