Knoxville, TN : Two drivers minor injuries in 5-vehicle crash Interstate 40 Alcoa Highway on Friday January 29 2016

A driver who slowed on Interstate 40 East near downtown Friday morning, causing a five-vehicle chain collision, has been charged with multiple violations.
The accident near the Alcoa Highway exit closed three lanes of the interstate and snarled traffic for about 45 minutes after the 11:37 a.m. accident
Jose Alvarengo Nunes, 27, of Honduras, was charged with impeding the flow of traffic, no driver's license and failure to provide proof of insurance, according to Knoxville Police Department spokesman Darrell DeBusk.
Nunes, who was driving a 2008 Infinity G37, was eastbound near the center lane when he suddenly slowed and came to a near stop, according to witness statements and KPD's investigation.
The first vehicle behind him swerved into another lane to avoid hitting the Infinity, but the second car in line was unable to avoid the collision, according to DeBusk.
As a result of the contact, three other vehicles were caught up in the crash.
Two drivers were taken to the University of Tennessee Medical with minor injuries.
