Also, I do have a tractor trailer,
03:29
Bowman Freightliner, and a brown Ford F 150 pulled over at the 200 and seventy-six .5 southbound that was involved.
03:37
But left the scene before pulling over, stating no injuries.
03:45
EMS one dispatch.
03:48
Go ahead.
03:51
The 280 south, there's also a tractor trailer in the median on the left-hand side of the road.
03:56
It looks like he just slid off the road.
03:58
You may get some calls about that.
04:00
White trailer, red tractor.
04:07
631.
04:10
And his trailer is also blocking the left-hand lane there, so it's going to create a pretty good hazard there.
04:21
Okay, given the incident they've had, there was at least seven vehicles involved.
04:26
We're not sure he may be involved in that incident as well.
04:32
No, I observed him run off the road.
04:39
All right, I'm on the scene.
04:41
Multiple vehicles, multiple tractor trailers overturned in the median.
04:45
Believe it's going to be multiple different incidents at the same time.
04:48
We're going to have 81 southbound closed.
04:53
81 southbound shut down.
04:55
Just verifying you did advise tractor trailers laid over in the median.
