A fatal accident involving multiple vehicles and a
tractor-trailer shut down traffic for a time on a stretch of
Interstate 20 in the Dallas area early Sunday, authorities said.
The tractor-trailer fell off an interstate highway ramp and onto
the ground before it eventually caught fire, said Dallas
Fire-Rescue Department spokesperson Jason Evans.
When the tractor-trailer crashed on the ground, it hit another
truck below and killed its driver, according to the Dallas
County Sheriff's Department. No other fatalities have been
confirmed.
Evans said local emergency crews in the area of the crash were
already dispatched to the accident when Dallas firefighters were
contacted at around 1:30 a.m.
