BREAKING Dozens of vehicles collide in massive, fiery pileup on Pennsylvania highway
POTTSVILLE, Pennsylvania -- A collision involving as many as 40 vehicles closed a portion of Interstate 81 in Pennsylvania on Monday, according to the Schuylkill County Office of Emergency Management.
The images were captured in video uploaded to social media on Monday. Officials in northeastern Pennsylvania's Schuylkill County said a snow squall swept through Minersville around 11 a.m., people off camera can be heard yelling as the cascade of crashes unfolds with multiple vehicles colliding in less than a minute. The person who posted the video did not immediately respond to requests seeking additional information.
Mike Colbert, a forecaster with the National Weather Service office in State College, said the weather service just started issuing warnings for snow squalls a few years ago, and pileups of the kind being reported were the reason they began doing so.
