SHOCKING: Video posted on social media shows a collision involving dozens of vehicles on Interstate 81 in Pennsylvania that killed at least three people and sent more than a dozen others to the hospital, authorities said.
POTTSVILLE, Pennsylvania -- A collision involving dozens of vehicles on Interstate 81 in Pennsylvania killed at least three people and sent more than a dozen others to area hospitals on Monday, authorities said.
Estimates of the number of vehicles involved from the emergency management agency and state police ranged between 40 and 60, including multiple tractor trailers. Blickley said emergency personnel from four different counties took about 20 patients to area hospitals for treatment. Three tractor trailers carrying unknown cargo were on fire when emergency personnel arrived and some smaller vehicles were also on fire, he said.
People whose vehicles were in the crash and the"walking wounded" were taken to the Wegman's distribution center in an industrial park near the crash, he said, and a reunification center had been set up at the Goodwill Fire Company in Minersville. The National Weather Service had warned of"numerous brief heavy snow squalls with very poor visibility."
